You can call it common sense advice, but everyone needs a reminder every now and then.

Flagler County Sheriff's deputies have been kept busy the last month or so investigating a number of car break-ins.

The Sheriff's Office issued a map pointing out all the car break-in cases they've had the last month or so.
