WEST HAVEN, Conn. (WTNH) A warning from West Haven police keep your garages locked up to keep the thieves out.

Frank and Claire Gentile know this first-hand. They had their house broken into years ago, which prompted them to secure their detached garage.

Thats when we decided to close everything in, lock everything up good and tight, Claire said, because I dont care where you live, no place is secure.

West Haven police say theyve seen people stealing from garages, things as big as a lawn mower to everyday tools anything worth value they can get their hands on.

Its easy for people to forget some of the costly items they keep in that part of their home.

We keep two cars here and I have a lot of stuff here that I used when I was in business, Frank said.

This is also about much more than garages. If you have any sheds in your backyard youre going to want to make sure those are locked as well.

Lock everything up tight because if you want it, someone else does too and they can sell these in 1, 2, 3.
