I was burglarized today
    #8476877 -

Someone broke into my house and stole some of my shit!!! Plus the made a mess of everything. They came in through the back yard, jumping over some fences...took a brick and busted out the window in the back door, opened the door and got all the shit they wanted. In the meantime, the alarm was going off the entire time, I found out by my wife calling me after the cops informed her.

They got away with:

40" LCD tv
ps3 plus games/controllers
wii plus games/controllers
over 100 dvd's
2 original xboxes
2 digital cameras
some cd's
a psp with charger and games
a nintendo DS without charger, but with games
and my college class ring plus other jewelry
and some pillow cases (evidently they stole these to use as bags for all my shit)

I'm fucking pissed!!! At least I have insurance, but i still have to pay a deductible which is over 1k. Fucking lowlife crackheads i'm sure.

anyways, this ever happen to anyone else? Any comments?

peace

I wouldn't think so, I just moved here not even 4 months ago, and the only friends I have so far are the ones I work with, and they were all at work...lol. Plus, all my other friends live over 250 miles away.

The cops came and fingerprinted the place, which amazed me, usually they would just not give a shit. I have a crew coming tomorrow to fix the door, hopefully it will be able to come off my deductible, but we will see. I am not going to sit around waiting for the insurance company to come through, otherwise I would be air conditioning earth for the next month.

No one in my neighborhood saw anything either. Evidently this is the first robbery in over ten years in my neighborhood, and of course, it had to happen to me.

Wow, what a heist. Maybe you could sue the alarm company for the $1000? I would imagine it would take some time to to gather up all that stuff.

My friend had his laptop stolen while he was riding a bus, took it right from under his feet and ran at the next stop.

I know there are sites you can register stolen stuff at, if you kept documentation with serials on any of it. I think if they are stupid enough to sell most of it together, any smart pawn shop owner would notify the police and they would be able to track it.

Hopefully something comes up, some people do get lucky.

Thats the problem though, in the ghetto, there is no such thing as a "smart pawn shop owner," they're in on it too. I live in a ghetto ass town, trust me on this one. I know 3 people who had laptops stolen. They went to every pawn shop possible, the owners told them they didn't know anything at the first mention of a laptop.

:rofl2:

Stolen shit is the pawn shop owner's bread and butter.  A smart pawn shop owner would probably hold the stuff in his back area and let it cool off for about a month before putting it on the floor. 

My friend had his door kicked in and they made off with his big ass TV, my PS2 and games, our nitro RC trucks (mine had over $1000 invested into it and lots of time) a sock and a big ass jar of change, mostly pennies. 

We went to a few local pawn shops and every time we asked them if they recently acquired my friends model of TV, etc, they got very defensive and said they had a right not to disclose what they had.  The stupid thing was the cops told us the best thing we could do was to start hitting pawn shops but it was clear upon doing so that the pawn shops aren't going to work with you when you're looking for stolen shit because if they did they'd be more a theft recovery service than a business.

it definitely wasn't anyone I know, as I do not know very many people here, just a few. The ones i do know make more than enough money on their own to not rob me...lmao.

I will be calling the local pawn shops starting tomorrow, mainly looking for a 'limited edition clear xbox' since i changed out the case on it, and a 'college class ring'. I am not however going to be naive and mention the stuff was stolen, I will come at it as a buyer. Pawn shop owners are as shady as the people who steal their merchandise for them.

Hopefully these guys will get caught, but I doubt it. Police for the most part do not care about solving real crime, but giving people tickets and making easy arrests.

but yeah...it is damn sucky

It could have been someone see me move in, but I didn't really have any of this stuff when I moved. I bought most of it with my hire bonus, though that doesn't mean they couldn't have watched me bring that in too...

peace

I could try, but there is no way, they did exactly what they are supposed to do. The cops were called within 2 minutes of the alarm sound (according to the alarm company) and they were here within another 10 minutes, glad my life wasn't in danger. So, in the end, the alarm company knew it went off, called the house (again, supposedly) and when no one answered contacted the police.

The coppers said that it is normal, and thieves don't care about alarms, they are in and out in less than 5 minutes usually, and it takes the alarm companies + police response longer than that. He said it was probably 2-4 people who knew what they were doing, and have been doing it all around town for about 2 weeks, said there are similar ones happening about 3-4 times a week for that past couple weeks...only time can tell if these dudes get busted.

I don't know if this applies but I know at like Guitar Center you have to provide proof of purchase when selling stuff because if they're selling stolen merch they get fucked for it.

i also had my toyota supra broken into, they vandalized the inside after taking about 2000 worth of stereo equipment, cd's, turbo timer display, and nos bottle...never got shit for it either. That was the last time i ever had and ever will have a nice stereo in my car.

This was in a different town though, and actually happened in a wal-mart parking lot, there were cameras on the guys, but the quality is so bad, it was useless. This time was actually most likely people that knew me, not friends, but people that had seen my car at shows around town. I now drive a 2000 cavalier btw...

Sounds like someone just took a bunch of useless junk off your hands. I would reinvest that insurance payout into something more fulfilling. My two cents.

I've always pondered putting lexan windows in my car, just to fuck with the thieves. Sure there are other ways to get in, but in the ghetto, they break the window and open the door. I could see the look on the crackhead's face now.
