Caught Someone Breaking Into the Touring

[doc540]

(that's BMW for "station wagon")

cliffs:

broad daylight

bad part of town

helping move my 91 year old uncle

20 feet away sitting in my uncle's truck in his driveway

Touring alarm went off

I turned and looked as a pickup truck sped away.

I run to the Touring, see broken window, think "hit and run".

I chase the truck about 8 blocks, flashing my lights.

Call 911 while chasing, give license and description.

Dude slows and pulls into his home driveway.

I park 1/2 block away (out of gun range)

4 cops arrive.

I discover the window frame has been bent = breakin, not hit and run

Guy's mom and dad lied for him and said he'd never left the house.

Cops believe my story, search him, find cocaine, take his sorry ass to jail.

I duct tape busted window, call insurance adjuster, set cruise on 80 on the way home 60 miles away.

Loss: Craftsman tool bag with my emergency road kit.

NOTE: At no time did I either anticipate or seek to involve any of the three guns I had in the car.

In other words kids, Doc didn't fire a shot and didn't want to.

What?

No pictures?

No video?

No MS Paint?


Sorry, I don't believe it happened.

No gun drawn = good day
Did the cops feel the cars hood to see if it was warm/hot or just go by what you said?
Also, does he have to pay for the claim to the insurance in this case?

At least he's in jail with a Felony. He's going to do at least some time. Another day without having to use your gun is always good.
