UPDATED October 18, 2023:

Two separate addresses had cars entered Sunday night (October 15) into Monday morning in town. This also happened in Easthampton and Southampton. The cars were left unlocked and valuables were taken. The Westhampton police is working with owners and examining footage from doorbell cameras. If anyone has any information to provide that might be helpful, please contact the Westhampton Police Department at 413-527-6154. In the meantime, homeowners are advised to lock cars at the end of the day, and to ensure that all exterior entrances to houses, garages and storage sheds are locked securely.

FROM SEPTEMBER 13:

Overnight last night (September 12), a vehicle was stolen from a driveway on Main Road in Westhampton. The GPS tracker in the vehicle allowed police to track the vehicle, and it has since been located in Hartford, Connecticut, and recovered.

The Westhampton Police Department encourages residents to lock their vehicles at night - even if parked in your own driveway. Residents should secure their garages and sheds, and remove any valuables from vehicles. The WPD also encourages residents to consider installing motion cameras and / or lighting around their homes to increase their safety and security.
