Jefferson Park Thieves Steal Woman's Car Tires And Rims

When she woke up the following morning to help her sons get ready for school, she said one of them noticed something was wrong with the car

A woman said a group of thieves stole all of the tires and rims off her car in the Jefferson Park neighborhood on Friday.

Amy Crespo is a mother of two young children and said it must have happened overnight. When she woke up the following morning to help her sons get ready for school, she said one of them noticed something was wrong with the car. When the thieves left with the tires, Crespo said they left bricks in its place.

“They should get a job at Nascar, changing the tires,” she said.

Crespo’s neighbor Jacob Centera, said it they must have taken only minutes to get the job done.

“It looked like they were professionals,” Centera said.

Lately, Crespo said, crimes like this have occurred rather frequently in her neighborhood and she wants to spread the word so others can be on the lookout.
