I'll be damned if somebody didn't try to break into my car

Silly them. They didn't know I'm a night owl and would hear the alarm.They were gone by the time I got to the parking lot. The police got here very quickly. I didn't call 911 I called the non-emergency number but they stopped by within 15 minutes.

1. So obnoxious.

I think I'm on my 5th break in. I'm like you a night owl, one time I went to get in my car at 2AM and I found someone sitting in it getting high.


Hope they didn't break anything.

5. He took off casually down the alley.

Haha. I'm about 5'7 and 140 pounds so I'm not scaring anyone. I never locked the doors because I had the windows broken out previously.

6. jeez i think i'd give up on car ownership if that were happening to me. do you live in a big city?

(don't tell me where. just wondering if it was city/suburb/rural)

7. Medium sized Midwestern city.

Low violent crime rate huge property crime rate. Generally I don't bother calling the cops unless there is damage done and a I need to file a report to my insurance company. Meth makes people do stupid shit. There was an instance here where they cut the catalytic converters off 4 cars in the parking lot.

8. we're experiencing a little drug & poverty-fueled crime wave in my small town but not to that

degree so far.

2. I am so sorry! Yikes!

Just glad to hear that everything turned out alright. Guess there are some advantages to staying up late at night.

3. Now that's what I call a malicious intruder!

ps. Glad they got scared off. Serious.
