New Hope is typically a small, safe town, which might lull people into complacency. These days, you can’t assume that it’s OK to leave your keys in your car – ever.
Hope they find the thieves SOON.
I left a rake on my front lawn and now it’s gone. Could you please put this on the front page? I love that rake and would like the police to waste their valuable time looking for it.
Lesson is do not leave your keys in the car!!
And a Buick Encore was stolen from a driveway on N. Main Street. Quite the list there, New Hope.
