Ontario Provincial Police say too many people in the Fort Frances area not locking their vehicles.

Recent patrols found more than 60 per cent of the naerly 200 vehicles checked with the doors unlocked.

Constable Anne McCoy says eight still had their keys inside.

"We need people to do their part in their locking things up," says McCoy. "We can do investigations to try and solve break and enters, but we need people to help us in trying to prevent the crimes."

McCoy says they'll be promoting the importance of keeping vehicle doors locked through their youth policing initiative this summer.
