Police say items were taken from the vehicles.
Mayor Beth DelBuono is asking Senator Lesser and Representatives Turco, Wood, and Lopes for more support.
She asserts "law enforcement responses alone are not effective" and goes on to write "this is a bigger issue requiring strategic targeting of habitual offenders..."
