Gutted for you . Had this happen last February.

Anyone reading this please take extra precautions. And if you catch them ................:95:

Could end up doing what a lad in Hartlepool did. Somebody broke into his house and stole tv, laptop, car keys and car. He got onto facebook and within 15 minutes found out where is car was. A mate drove him round there. The thief was just about to get into the stolen car when he saw the bloke coming up to it and started to run. His mate in the car saw him and ran him over. They beat the snot out of him and sat on him till the cops turned up. Broken wrist, shoulder and ribs. He'd only been out of prison 5 days and had 91 other convictions. Funny thing was that the scrote said he got what he deserved.
 
Thanks everyone, will get onto the usual websites as suggested. It's people like the scum you mentioned who had 91 other convictions, wouldn't mind 10 minutes alone with them with the drills they have stolen, see what a core drill can really do! They have no understanding of the stress and hardship they cause people
 
Sorry to hear that thorn theres nothing worse and i hope the tinks miss there giro day and get ran over by a combine harvester,
I sincerely hope you get them back , ive said it b4 :::--- Death by pipeslice
 
Gutted for you, my van has been broken into three times in two years luckily nothing much taken due to dead locks on the rear doors but still the hasel it causes, and yesterday a notification on Facebook from the local police saying over the last four nights four new transits have been stolen from my local town without the use of keys........... How the hell are they doing that

A remote reader, they scan the barcode under the windscreen of the vehicle then lignite around till the owner walks up to the vehicle as they do so the keyless entry and start frequency is picked up and logged onto the device and they effectively have a key for that vehicle. The best bit is the device they use costs less then a new fob from the main dealer
 
What winds me up aswell is how unresponsive the police were, they seem to see it as a very minor incident and had no intention of coming out atall. It was a Saturday morning ffs! How busy can they be
 
If there was blood they would have sent someone! Had mine done but the prat had punched through the window and there was claret everywhere!

So what was the outcome of that?

An unexpected outcome. The lad got car and all his gear back. The thief got sent down and didnt press charges for the being run over or the assault. He merely stated that he got what was coming to him. Think the two lads were really lucky. 999 times out of a thousand the scrote would havevpressed charges and they would probably have got done for it.
 
Professional hazard o suppose. I would struggle not to kill them if I caught some one who had just burgled me. I've only stabbed one merchant with his own biro!
