Officials say they are seeing a lot of people who are continuing to leave cars unlocked and criminals are typically looking for money, computers and purses, but they hit the jackpot when they come across a gun.<\/p>\n
Louisville Metro Police Department say about 150 guns were reported stolen from vehicles in past year and the break-ins happen in all areas of the city.<\/p>\n
Officials say those weapons can be either used in crimes, kids are posing with them on social media, or they can eventually shoot
\nthemselves with them.<\/p>\n
Police said they can also land in the hands of convicted felons and could end up in a shooting of in a homicide.<\/p>\n
Police advise to always lock an unoccupied, especially if a gun is being left in it.
