Guns Stolen from Parked Cars on the Rise

A recent report from the Council on Criminal Justice reveals a concerning shift in gun theft patterns, indicating that 40% of all stolen firearms now come from parked vehicles. This rise marks a significant increase from just 31% in 2018 and aligns with the doubling of gun thefts during vehicle break-ins in urban areas, which escalated from 37 to 65 incidents per 100,000 residents in the same period.

Further, the number of guns swiped from parking lots and garages has soared by 76%, emphasizing the need for gun owners to reevaluate how and where they secure their firearms. As car thefts trend upward—growing from 199.4 to 283.5 per 100,000 people from 2019 to 2023—experts recommend implementing in-car safes to mitigate risks and adhere to new regulations in states like Colorado and Delaware, where securely stored guns in vehicles are now mandated.
