The head of the Success Village community in Bridgeport is warning people to protect their vehicles from theft.

Board President Ty Bird says three vehicles have been stolen and two others were broken into over the past week.

He says thieves appear to be targeting Hyundais and Kias because they're easier to break into.

One woman said thieves tried to steal her car and caused thousands of dollars in damage in the process.

Success Village suggests residents go "old-school" by securing cars with a "club-style" steering-wheel lock.

Officials say the complex will soon be getting more security cameras and hopefully one day will be gated.
