The Ford Escape was unlocked overnight and someone removed $140 in cash, a $2 scratch-off lottery winner and $25 scratch-off lottery winner and about $20-25 in loose change, according to police. 

A wallet, with about $25 in cash and a few credit cards, was missing from inside the unlocked Nissan Pathfinder, which was parked in a driveway, according to police.

At about 3 a.m., the victim told police he heard a car alarm go off but was unsure if it was his and he did not see anything when he looked out the window, according to police.
