Thanksgiving vs Drug Addicts

[justr0]

Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!? Well I sure had a lot of things to be thankful for, until this sh*t happened and ruined my day!

All this for $2 worth of quarters, Ray ban sunglasses and that plastic emergency key adapter!....







*sigh*

[B8 S4]

Sorry to see this, mext time shoot on site

[k9lovr]

This sucks....its all fixable though and no one was hurt

[justr0]

I am quite thankful for that! No scratches to the paint job or cigarette burns on the seats...phew!

[AidansDaddy]

F***! Sorry to hear. No witnesses or security camera nearby?

Had two different cars broken into. First incident, thief got his blood all over the window and cloth seats trying to steal an Alpine tape deck back in the day, but failed. They did get away with stealing a sub in the trunk though. Second incident, they stole my amp mounted to the sub, slashed my tires, then took my bowling ball and threw it through the window of another nearby vehicle.

So, I feel your pain.

[MrFunk]

Nothing boils my blood more! Sorry man. It will clean up and a window can be replaced... better a broken window vs a mangled door frame from a crowbar.

lame

F***! Sorry to hear. No witnesses or security camera nearby?

face w/o a name means nothing.


insult to injury, they break in to steal your blackvue.

[homelessNY_LI]

Sorry thats horrible.

I do hope they find the criminal and he gets what he deserves in prison

[Thurston]

damn man the smash and grab.

[cspcrx]

That sucks. Had somerhing similar happen and they took a cell phone charger and an empty sunglass case!

[lettuce]

I've had this happen to me three times in my life. It never gets any easier.

At least you can take some solace in the fact that this scumbag is undoubtedly living a miserable, worthless life to have to stoop to doing inhuman shit like this. Meanwhile you'll get your S4 fixed and go on being a productive member of society unlike this piece of trash who will never contribute anything positive to society.

So it could always be worse, you could be the animal who did this.

[Nightkiller6]

I hate people that do this. This happened to my mom a few years ago. The criminals were dumb enough to use her credit card close by and were arrested two weeks later.

[eurotic]

Sorry to hear this. I think most people that own a vehicle long enough have similar stories. My B6 was broken into twice and didn't get anything, not sure why they even broke in, I guess to see if there was something there. The second time really was an attempted break-in, they tried a screw driver in the lock of the drivers door. My B8 was broken into and they got my prescription Oakley's...that hurt a lot because they are useless to them and cost me $500. The most rewarding (read lucky) I've been was my previous wife and I had a Dodge Grand Caravan that someone broke into and got her wallet she left in the car. They missed the cash she had also left in the van (she was doing home parties and had about $1000 in cash in the zipper pouch her wallet was sitting on). About 2 months later all her ID and wallet were returned to her when the guy was caught; he kept a box filled with all the wallets he stole...what a freaking idiot. Yes I know my wife (now ex-wife) was also an idiot for leaving the stuff in the van in the first place.

Damn, that sucks. What an annoyance. Sorry man :(

[richib86]

Happened to me in my first s4, I feel your pain. Where in NJ did this happen?

[b6onboost]

Based on the picture this doesn't surprise me. The car seems to be parked on the street, under a bridge, and looks to be worth about 5x more the other cars parked nearby. While this type of crime is never preventable, there is something to be said about not putting yourself in the position to potentially be a victim. I wish all people respected each other and their property, but that's not the world we live in.

That's where social media comes in.

[u2nelson]

that sucks would really piss me off.

[cchoi83]

I am very sorry that this happened to you. I had a similar incident happen to me this past March. At the very least it's extremely frustrating and insulting. I've never felt so violated in my life.

This happened to me in the city on a well lit and populated street some time between 10PM and 2AM. I wish the PD would do some forensics but they don't for this type of crime even though my case was grand larceny. No damage to the car other than a broken window.

Perp(s) were never caught, at least for the crime they committed against me.

At least you're safe man. It could have been worse.

[BLACKS4-10]

What balls that in a public parking garage..maybe a camera has them on video..had an incident just like that years ago in my 89 Buick Regal ..same window and ransacked the car. Karma will get them as it was probably some jealous waste of life who never had and most likely never will have anything nice in life..Sorry to see and brings back bad memories..

oh man that sucks, at least that A$$hole didn't smash your windshield with your own bowling ball. No dude, no camera's in that area, however it is quite well lit. I had just temporarily moved my car there cause it was street cleaning day for my usual spot. Anyways, since it was black friday, i decided to invest in Blackvue 2Ch setup with the PMP.

Yea the PD has bigger fish to fry, they don't bother with break in's. However, at least they were nice enough to not give me a ticket for my tinted front windows and windshield! :-p . To make things worse, this isn't covered by my insurance since my deductible is like $250 and glass+labor costs like $174...so FML.

lol, can't make this stuff up!

Ironically I'm very close to Newark so I'm not too shocked that this happened, but it still stings

Agreed, unfortunately I had only temporarily moved the car there since all the "good" spots were taken, it being Thanksgiving n all, but yea I totally regret parking there now. However, there are quite a few nice cars parked there quite often, there was a shiny new Camaro with a giant GPS stuck on the windshield right behind me and a Mercedes CLA250 on the other side of the street. But like you said, sometimes things like this are just unavoidable *sigh*

that sucks would really piss me off.

Yea man, horrible feeling, but you know what, the damage is quite minor and doesn't cost me an arm and a leg. But it does hurt to see something you cherish being vandalized like this.

[richib86]

i actually think i may have saw you driving last week on 17 going north around waldwick. i was cruising with a black car with red rings

[WizardofUz]

Unfortunately, this is a very common occurrence here in Miami. My wife's car has been ransacked twice right in the driveway of our home. Both times, they just made a mess. The first time, they took her make-up case and tossed it on our neighbor's lawn two houses down. The second time, they left the driver's door cracked open and it drained the battery (we were on vacation for a week and had just arrived at home to find the mess). My wife has a bad habit of not locking her doors, so this obviously doesn't help.

These asshats typically roam through the neighborhoods pulling on door handles to see if the vehicles are unlocked. They are opportunists. On the second break-in, I had clear surveillance video of two punks working both sides of the street at the same time, but the police were not interested in seeing it. Since we had a rash of break-ins in our neighborhood during that time, our community's maintenance company put out fliers warning everyone to lock their vehicles and they were interested in obtaining a copy of the video that I had. Two weeks later, this happened and we haven't had anymore issues:

In the meantime, I call this a happy ending!

Fast forward to three months ago. I was having lunch with a manufacturer's representative at a popular North Miami restaurant. When we finished, one of the servers went around the restaurant asking who owned a black minivan. Well, the guy I was having lunch with did and when he asked why she was trying to find out, she said that a patron that parked next to it noticed that the side door was open. Immediately, we both ran out to the parking lot and found that his van had been broken into (screwdriver under the door handle routine) and his bag and backpack were gone. They got his laptop and his iPad, but left his Beats headphones and his GPS. I guess they were spooked by something. Regardless, they did this in the middle of the day in a parking lot that has six (YES, SIX!!!) security cameras on the wall facing the van!!! Again, North Miami Police told him to contact his insurance company because they weren't going to investigate any further. He said that the only way they would dust for fingerprints is if there was blood present. O-kay! Not much of a deterrent if the police aren't trying to find out who these people are. By the way, before he left, he told us that he personally goes to at least a dozen vehicle break-ins each week on that small stretch of Biscayne Boulevard.

The lessons here are...

• Leave items out of view.
• Always lock your doors.
• At night, park in well-lit areas.

Don't make it any easier for these delinquents to ruin your day!

They went for the key adapter hoping you left the other piece in it so they could drive off with your car, it's happened a few times in Vancouver this year.

[cchoi83]

Sorry, I meant 10PM and 2AM and on a weekday no less.

[OnEaNgRyBuNnY]

Sorry this happen, man. Looks like the whole tinted windows help prevent break-ins by keeping the window together is BS, though. At least it kept the mess down...

yea, where there is an ill will, there is a way. Tinted or not, these scumbags will break that window. But yes, it did keep the mess to a minimum as most of the shards were stuck to the film.

Did you just say tints?

God damn that fucking sucks! Sorry to hear man! I leave absolutely nothing in sight weather it's change, Chargers or a pen. It's all in the glove box when I leave the car. There to too many grimey ass ppl in this world.
