Residents of Over-the-Rhine in Cincinnati are increasingly frustrated by frequent car break-ins, with some areas experiencing multiple incidents weekly. Despite a downward trend in overall reports, the issue persists, affecting both locals and visitors. Mike Basch, a local resident and Airbnb owner, describes the situation as a 'cancer to the city' and calls for more effective security measures, as current efforts like installing cameras may not suffice due to thieves wearing masks.
