Detectives with the Kingston Police Criminal Investigation Division are investigating recent thefts of Lexus vehicles that are alleged to have taken place on Nov. 12, 2021.

According to Kingston Police, the thefts occurred while the vehicles were parked in the owner’s driveways with the suspect or suspects managing to gain entry, start the vehicles and eventually steal them without the use of vehicle keys.

“The investigation to date has revealed that the suspects had taken the time in identifying possible target vehicles during the early morning hours of Nov. 7, 2021. In the early morning hours of Nov. 12, 2021 the suspect(s) were successful in completing the thefts,” Kingston Police said in a press release.

Both the apparent targeting of vehicles on Nov. 7, 2021 and the theft of vehicles on Nov. 12, 2021 took place in residential neighbourhoods in the west end of Kingston near Highway 401, Kingston Police said.
