SPD News Release – Off Duty Officer Locates Stolen Vehicle – Ninth in One Week

March 3, 2010

On 03/02/10, Officer Glenn Bartlett was off duty when a black Nissan Pathfinder pulled in front of him.  He immediately recognized this vehicle as being stolen as he had taken the report earlier in the day while on duty.  Officer Bartlett contacted police dispatch and continued to follow the vehicle to the Shadle Wal-Mart parking lot.  Investigative Sergeant Dan Torok was also off duty and on his way home when he responded to assist while waiting for on duty units to arrive and recover the vehicle.

Officer Erin Raleigh, Officer Frank Erhart and Officer Nick Geren arrived on scene and contacted the occupants of the vehicle.  Officers later placed the driver, Christal N. Helsley, 36, under arrest for Possession of a Stolen Vehicle.

Since February 25th, there has been an increase in stolen vehicle activity in the area of 12th Ave and South Ivory St.  Several vehicles have been stolen from and recovered in a six mile radius of that location, including the Nissan Pathfinder recovered by Officer Bartlett.

Over his last five day work week, which ended yesterday, Officer Bartlett has recovered nine stolen vehicles.  Bartlett’s patrol car is equipped with two cameras and an automatic license-plate recognition system allowing him to scan vehicle license plates and compare it against a nationwide database of stolen vehicles, allowing him to recover stolen cars faster.

While this does give Spokane Police Department another tool to assist them with stolen vehicles, citizens can still take precautions when leaving their vehicles unattended to avoid having their vehicle become a target.

  • Secure Your Vehicle – park in a locked garage or well lit area, lock your doors, don’t leave the engine running unattended.
  • Sterilize Your Vehicle – avoid leaving anything of value in plain sight inside the vehicle.
  • Anti-Theft Devices – clubs, alarm systems

Report the Crime to the Police – Vehicle Prowling or Vehicle Theft

Worried about your residence while on Spring Break?

March 2, 2010
  • If you would like your home checked during the week while you are away on vacation or other business, the Spokane Police Department Senior Volunteers offer this service.Services are provided Monday through Friday for up to 30 days. All doors and windows are physically checked including any out-buildings on your property.

    Call the Vacation Home Check Information line at (509)622-5885 if you are interested in having this service provided to you.

  • A FEW QUICK TIPS: 

  • If you will be gone more than two to three days, make arrangements to have your newspaper and mail deliveries stopped or picked up by a trusted neighbor or friend.
  • Lock all gates, doors and windows. 
  • Close all window curtains.
  • If you are leaving your vehicle at home, take all items of value out of it and make sure it is locked.

  • Remove the incentive for vehicle prowls!

    March 2, 2010

    Lately, we’ve seen an increase in the number of vehicles being broken into, mostly out in the neighborhood. The common factor in these thefts is the visible presence of “incentives”: cash, CD’s, Ipods, purses, wallets, checkbooks, backpacks, laptops.

    Remember, most “vehicle prowlers” will check your vehicle for these incentives first, then break in – not the other way around. If you want to reduce your chance of having your car broken into, remove the incentive. Take enticing items with you if you can. At least conceal them (for example, put them in your trunk) if you can’t.

    It’s that simple.
