Darien Motor Vehicles Entered 2025
Thieves Try to Hack a Digital Key in One Car, Attempt Made to Enter Another
|
Burglars targeted two vehicles in town last week — one on Tuesday on the Post Road, the other on Saturday on Hecker Avenue, Darien police said. Nothing was taken from either vehicle. In the Saturday incident, the thieves may have tried to get the car open with technology designed to subvert a “digital key” — an app on a smartphone that’s used instead of a key fob on some cars. “Digital key” technology is relatively new, and thieves have sometimes been able to get it to open car doors. Police gave the following information about the incidents:
On Tuesday, March 4, an unlocked car parked outside a Post Road home was entered.
