I agree, the laws vary from state to state.
It seems like this sting was mostly focused on thefts from unlocked vehicles (488PC, 487PC).
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “This time of the year, thefts from unlocked vehicles increase and have been a problem throughout Ventura County. Thousand Oaks saw a spike in these types of crimes last fall.”
I agree with you you regarding the description of a burglary of vehicle. (459PC-Auto).

Thanks - sometimes I get something right!
