Project Auto Theft Reduction (PATR)

Project Auto Theft Reduction (PATR) is a targeted effort by law enforcement agencies to decrease vehicle thefts through data analysis, community collaboration, and strategic enforcement. It involves identifying high-risk areas, implementing proactive patrols, and engaging the community in prevention efforts like awareness campaigns and secure parking practices. The goal is to disrupt theft patterns, increase recovery rates, and ultimately reduce the number of vehicles stolen, enhancing safety and security for residents and vehicle owners.
