The rash of car thefts and car break-ins that we've seen in Cleveland happened again overnight.
Our overnight News Tracker found broken glass on the ground in a parking lot in the Flats.
More parked cars were broken into overnight in Cleveland. I found 6 in the area of the Flats and West 9th. I feel like if you're going to park downtown right now you may want to leave a window down to hopefully prevent this from happening to you. pic.twitter.com/UfVJRpk6lR
