Living in the country I thought it was safe to leave my doors unlocked, keys in the ignition sometimes... I thought my broken door handles were theft deterrent enough... Well anyway some guy broke into my car took about 30 cents worth of pennies from the ash tray, took 3 cd's, and left a radar detector on the front seat. Maybe an even trade but I already had a radar detector. The thief did the same thing to a friends car (Saab) that was in the driveway. Things the thief didn't take, CD players, pay check, guitar amp, '73 volvo center console (that's gold...lol). The police came out made a report, and tried to get finger prints from the radar detectors. They didn't find
any prints so it could have just been "let me type this into my invisible typewriter" scenarios. My friend thought to call a local cd shop to alert them to the cd's coming in, since they were about the only local shop dealing in the sort of music we had stolen (Verve, Kraftwerk, James). The record thought it was a slim chance but took our info down. Later that night the record store calls, the guy tried selling the cd's they gave him an IOU, kept the cd's and got his ID. I contacted the police again so they could get the info and cd's from the record store. I found out the next day that the guy was already in jail for a B'nE or something since going to the cd shop. The
CD's are now evidence I guess so I probably won't see them for a while.
