HUTCHINSON, Kan. — As the cold weather begins, many will want to warm up their vehicles each morning. Hutchinson police want to remind motorists to remain in their vehicle while it is warming up.
An unattended, running vehicle presents an easy opportunity for it to be stolen. It is also a violation of Kansas Law to leave an unattended motor vehicle running with the keys in it.
The exception to this is vehicles equipped with remote start systems, where a key is not required to keep the vehicle running.
Police ask that residents be cautious when warming up their vehicle.
