After numerous Kia and Hyundai thefts over the past several months, the Stark County Sheriff’s Office is working to combat these incidents.
The sheriff’s office is offering free steering wheel locks for anyone who owns a Kia or Hyundai, officials said.
The vehicle must have been manufactured between 2011 and 2022 to be eligible, and locks will only be available while supplies last.
To receive a lock, vehicle owners must bring their driver’s license, vehicle registration and proof of insurance.
Locks will be available at the sheriff’s office located at 4500 Atlantic Blvd. NW.
