Lock your cars, please
PUTNAM — Sept. 5 the Putnam Police Department responded to reports of auto burglaries which occurred during the night before.

The Putnam Police Department is reminding residents to always lock their vehicles and remove the keys and other valuables from view inside of your vehicle or just take them into your home.
