Confirmed cargo thefts, however, climbed 18% to 2,646 incidents, reflecting the shift toward higher-value operations.<\/p>\n<p>California remained the most impacted state with 1,218 incidents. While Los Angeles County saw an 11% decline, Kern County reported an 82% increase and San Joaquin County cargo thefts rose 44%. The other top targeted states were Texas and Illinois. Together with California, the three states represented nearly 52% of all cargo theft in 2025. New Jersey, Indiana and Pennsylvania also posted significant year\u2011over\u2011year increases.<\/p>\n<p>Food and beverage thefts also shot up 47%, with meat, seafood and tree nuts among the most targeted items depending on region.
