A keyless car theft does not involve a regular key, but instead thieves use a wireless technology that allows them to unlock and start the car without touching the key fob.

They are requesting residents to review CCTV, Dashcam and doorbell footage in the Poplar Grove, Simpsons Way and Bagley Wood Road areas.
