While you may have a lot of things going on, police say you really need to take a moment and protect yourself against thieves.
"Perhaps people again are so busy they leave valuables in plain viewing sight, like laptops, GPS systems, packages where they have been out shopping at various malls and shopping centers," said Captain Robert Manzo with the Houston Police Department.
If you try to hide items in your trunk, police say try being discreet about it.
