Green Bay Police Say Car Thefts Are On The Rise

Green Bay police report more than two dozen cars have been stolen already in 2019 and, in many cases, the thief behind the wheel is middle-school aged.  One 12-year-old suspect is suspected of stealing five cars.  Police Chief Andrew Smith has been pushing for a city ordinance which would include a fine for anyone leaving their car unlocked with the keys inside.  Despite the growing problem, members of the Green Bay City Council rejected the idea.
