It happened again this morning, This time it was my Mazda3. When some Ass Hole broke into my Truck in December they tried unsuccessfully to take my head unit. This morning I went outside to go to work and the window was smashed in. They stole my Tom Tom, a radar detector, my cigar caddy with some cigars in it, and a Merkur Razor that I was mailing back to the retailer for a replacement. The auto insurance will pay for all but $100 of the window but I'm SOL for the other stuff my homeowners deductible is $500 and that's how much it would cost to replace that stuff myself. God I'm pissed the first time it cost me 35 for a used window and an hour of my time. Now they actually took stuff that meant something to me. I'm gonna go workout and hit some stuff now.

Damn it...I hate f'n theives. I hope whoever is doing it gets caught. They did hit the jackpot though, a cigar caddy, cigars, a razor...nice! :-) Just joking, I am sorry that happened to you!

Sorry to hear! Was the car on the street? Were the items in plain sight? Anymore, you can't leave anything in view! I'm always amazed to see convertibles parked with CDs in easy reach!

Well, your adrenaline should be pumping good- go set some lifting records!

Everything was in the glove box except the small box I had to mail. They had no idea anything else was in there.

Dude... very sorry to hear about this.

Is your neighborhood going down hill, or is this just a recent rash of break-ins? Any new neighbor hoodlums hanging around?

Did you have the suction cups or mount for your GPS visible? GPS units account for about 80% of the auto burglaries in this area now, and the chitbags have gotten smart....they realize that a mount in plain view means, quite possibly, a GPS unit in the glove box or console.

And for those who take their GPS inside, but leave the mount in plain view, they don't lose their GPS...but they still get the busted window or punched lock.

I am sorry this happened to you, maybe you can help some other inmates down the line if you let us know if the GPS mount was visible. Hope they catch the chitbag who did this to you.

No I usually do have the mounting on the windshield but had just taken it off this week.

Tom, whoever broke the window cut them self because there was blood on some of the papers I had in the glove box. Would this be of any use to the Police? I don't expect it to be like CSI, but if it could be of any use I'd like to peruse it. After all this was ~$400 in stuff and tampering with US mail.

Take the paper inside a plastic bag to the cops. They can file it with the report. If they do catch the guy they can use it to link other crimes and that may mean the difference in jail time and letting him walk. I had a guy ask for change and gave me a dollar, later he came back to the store and pried open the register. The dollar he gave was still there and had his print on it. They caught him later at another store doing the same and matched his print. He got a few months to cool his heels.

That really sucks man.

That sucks! When I was a kid doing the apartment thing, parking outside - I had every one of my vehicles broken into at least once. Thank goodness for garages.
