Sharjah: Six Omanis were caught for stealing luxury cars from Sharjah.

The suspects stole cars, mostly from dealers who kept the engines running while away; they stole around 12 cars, said the police.

The theft occurred in isolated places where there are no security guards or closed circuit television, said Lieutenant Colonel Yousuf Al Naqbi, director of criminal investigation department, on Monday. "It's ignorance on part of car dealers and owners," he said.
