Who are the real criminals here?
The Roseville Police Department ticket comes with a $128 fine. There is no state law against leaving your car turned on and unattended, but dozens of cities across Michigan have local ordinances.
“We have five to ten cars stolen this way every winter,” Roseville Police Chief James Berlin said. “It’s dangerous, and of course it drives everyone’s insurance rates up. It drives our crime rates up.”
