Crimes like package theft, hit-and-runs and arson have been linked to car-sharing services in western Washington, GeekWire reports.

Police in Seattle and Bellevue confirmed to GeekWire that crimes linked to car-sharing services are on the rise. Because vehicles like LimePods and Car2Go are easy to rent and can be difficult to trace, they’ve become a popular tool in certain types of crimes in the Seattle region and beyond.

In July, a man called Seattle police to report three people in a LimePod vehicle tried running him over and threw rocks at him. A few weeks later in Bellevue, police arrested a package theft suspect after a LimePod was seen on a doorbell security camera and traced back to the suspect's home.
