Louisville police report uptick in stolen cars, especially Dodge vehicles

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- The Louisville Metro Police Department is issuing a warning for drivers about an uptick in stolen vehicles—especially Dodge vehicles.

According to police, suspects are taking photos of VIN numbers on vehicles late at night. They are then making keys to that specific vehicle before returning and stealing it.

If you see this happening, or have a doorbell camera or security camera that may have captured it happening, LMPD asks that you share the footage with them so they can watch for the suspects trying to come back.

Tips and information in the thefts, or any active crime case in the city, can be reported to LMPD's anonymous Crime Tip Line at (502) 574-LMPD (5673). Tips can also be submitted anonymously through the department's online Crime Tip Portal by clicking here.
