Park Smart: Lock Doors & Secure Guns

The MNPD strongly encourages Nashvillians and visitors to lock their automobile doors, secure any valuables---especially guns, and REMOVE THE KEYS.

So far this year, 94 guns have been stolen from vehicles in Nashville, 12 were taken from autos just last week. The total number of guns stolen this year in Davidson County is 130, which means that 72% of guns stolen in 2026 have been taken from automobiles. Last year at this same time, 134 guns had been stolen from vehicles.

Just like guns taken from vehicles, stolen autos are routinely involved in criminal activities, including carjackings and robberies.
