By the time Christmas Day was over, the Bowling Green Police Division had 23 reports from citizens saying someone had entered their unlocked vehicles on the holiday.
In 19 of the cases, nothing was stolen. In the four other cases, the “Grinch” reportedly took some credit cards, $40 in cash, and some assorted coins – all from vehicles at Gypsy Lane Estates manufactured home park.
Bowling Green Police Division started getting calls at 10 on Christmas morning from residents reporting their vehicles had been entered overnight at 535 W. Gypsy Lane Road, according to Lt. Dan Mancuso.
