CargoNet, a Verisk business and leader bongdaso vn cargo theft prevention and recovery, today released its cargo theft data for the second quarter of 2024, revealing a substantial increase bongdaso vn theft incidents compared to the same period last year.
CargoNet recorded 771 theft incidents bongdaso vn the second quarter of 2024, representing a 33% increase compared to the second quarter of 2023. However, theft activity decreased by 10% from all-time highs established bongdaso vn the first quarter of 2024. CargoNet's analyst team noted slight behavioral shifts bongdaso vn the country's most prolific organized cargo theft groups operating bongdaso vn Southern California. Across the board, these groups evolved to be more discriminating bongdaso vn their shipment targets, stealing high-value freight like motor oil and computer electronics less frequently.
There were notable changes bongdaso vn the types of goods targeted bongdaso vn cargo thefts. Compared to the first quarter of 2024, CargoNet observed significant growth bongdaso vn targeting of vitamins and supplements, alcoholic beverage shipments (primarily liquor), and over-the-counter skincare products. bongdaso vn contrast, theft of vehicle accessories like tires and motor oils, footwear, and consumer electronics such as televisions and computers decreased notably. The average shipment value bongdaso vn the quarter was 0,711, and CargoNet estimates that .5 million bongdaso vn freight was stolen during this period.
Theft activity was highest bongdaso vn California, Texas, and Illinois. bongdaso vn line with the 10% decrease bongdaso vn activity from the first quarter of 2024, reported activity bongdaso vn the top 5 counties - Los Angeles Co, CA; San Bernardino Co, CA; Riverside Co, CA; Cook Co, IL; and Dallas Co, TX - shrank significantly. However, bongdaso vn most areas, activity remained relatively consistent. For example, while activity bongdaso vn Dallas County decreased, activity bongdaso vn Tarrant County grew significantly due to a surge of thefts around the western edges of Fort Worth, TX.
CargoNet expects cargo theft activity bongdaso vn the third quarter of 2024 to remain elevated. Organized cargo theft rings bongdaso vn Southern California continue to be the most prolific threat, but theft by deception schemes are growing bongdaso vn popularity across the continental United States, particularly targeted pilferage schemes and non-delivery of whole shipments. We anticipate that these methods of cargo theft will continue to increase bongdaso vn popularity.
