These burglary of motor vehicle stings are a response to problem areas that have a high incident that occurs of that situation. If many people are becoming victimized by car burglars repeatedly in a specific area, Officers may target and bait that area in hopes of identifying the burglars. It is almost always a response to a problem in that area, not "creating" one.
