STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. \u2014 Eight vehicle thefts were reported on Staten Island during the first week of 2026, according to NYPD data<\/a>, marking an increase compared to the same period last year.<\/p>\n

During the first week of 2025, no vehicle thefts were reported on the borough. By contrast, four car thefts occurred between Jan. 1 and Jan. 7, 2026, highlighting an early-year uptick in auto-related crimes.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a look at the reported incidents, listed from oldest to newest:<\/p>\n

On Dec. 29 at 11 p.m., a car theft was reported at Hooker Place and Morningstar Road in Elm Park.On Dec. 30 at 7 a.m., a car theft was reported at Pompey and Memphis avenues in Eltingville.On Dec. 31 at 4 p.m., a motorcycle theft was reported at Front and Wave streets in Stapleton.

Beginning in late summer 2023, the NYPD implemented a tactical shift aimed at curbing vehicle thefts, using enhanced intelligence gathering and multi\u2011agency coordination. That strategy helped drive down grand larceny auto cases boroughwide after a surge the previous year. Despite that progress, early 2026 figures indicate continued monitoring will be necessary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. \u2014 Eight vehicle thefts were reported on Staten Island during the first week of 2026,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":95712,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[9,24,63,134,136,135],"class_list":{"0":"post-95711","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-staten-island","8":"tag-new-york","9":"tag-new-york-city","10":"tag-nyc","11":"tag-staten-island","12":"tag-staten-island-headlines","13":"tag-staten-island-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/95711","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=95711"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/95711\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/95712"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=95711"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=95711"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=95711"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
