Mexico Mexicali Valley

Mexicali, Mexico -

If you plan to drive into Mexico this weekend, be careful!

Mexican police say car thefts are way up in several border cities.

Mexicali has especially seen a spike in car thefts, with a 79% rise in reported cases when compared to this time last year.

Since January of this year, Mexicali police say they've received almost 4,000 reports of stolen cars, and the majority of stolen vehicles had American plates.

Among the most targeted models are Honda Accords and Civics as well as Nissan Sentras and Altimas.

Police say travelers should be extra careful not to leave any valuables visible in their cars, and make sure to park only in public, well-lit areas.
