Nearly a dozen cars were broken into in Elma Thursday. 

The Erie County Sheriff's Office says cash, laptops, tools and other items were removed from 11 different vehicles. 

All of the larcenies were reported in the area of Oaknoll Court, Hilltop Drive and Woodard Road. 

Sheriff's deputies urge drives to keep their doors locked at all times, even if the vehicle is parked in a driveway outside a home, and to remove any and all valuable items.
