Police in Ocean City, Maryland say they received seven reports Tuesday of airbags being stolen from cars.
Police say that in each case, the airbag was stolen from a General Motors vehicle parked in a motel or condominium parking lot. Police say a rear window was broken in each case and only the airbag was stolen while other valuables in the cars were not taken.
Airbags cost between $500 and $1,200 and are a popular target for thieves. According to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, more than 50,000 airbags are stolen annually.
