I went out to visit a friend yesterday after work. The guest parking spots are far away at his apartment complex, which I always hated. After a while, my alarm remote started beeping at me, so i went out to my car and noticed two kids trying to steal my foglights and lower grill. They even had removed some bolts from beneath the bumper since they couldn't get it out.

The funny part was, I walked by and asked if they needed a hand with anything, they said no, they're just trying to replace a bulb.

So far my I've seen someone in the act trying to steal my wheels, foglights, and the car itself within the last 6 months. And my car looks almost complely stock. I'm glad this alarm actually works.

 

That's crazy! Should have unzipped and started to pee on their heads while they continued to try and replace the "bulb".

 

wow

what happened next

 

so what happened when you told them that was your car? knock on wood, i haven't had anyone try to take anything from my car. but i do need to get an alarm.

 

One of them would have caught a swift kick to the chest and the other probably would have walked away with a broken jaw. But thats just me! So what alarm do you have? I might have to invest...

 

You can't stop the story right there! did you get in and drive over them? And dude, I am in Portland too! I'd better be careful as well then.

 

hmm

 

I wanna know...

What you DID!

 

I told them I've replaced the bulb before since it was my car. One kid tried to run but tripped over the island right next to the car and started crying. The other just sat there pleading that I don't call the police, and even gave me $42. They looked like they were in highschool, which surprised me since they reacted like babies. Honestly, I didn't even move from where I was standing.

I called the police and he said he would take them to the parents house. I spent about 20 minutes trying to find the d@mn bolts to put it back together.

The funnier story was when the car was trying to get jacked. For anyone interested, getting a pager alarm offers entertainment when you catch these morons in the act. I don't remember what model I got, but it's a clifford matrix.

 

Awesome. Hey moron, that's my car now give me your money and this officer will take your crybaby butt home to mom and dad...LMAO!

 

Thats great man! Awesome story! I would keep a video camera with me at all times! hahaha, documented footage of this would have been priceless!

 

That is just awesome. Maybe I should look into a security system myself.

 

omg lol

 

This story made my day, It would have been fun seeing their faces lol...

 

Yeah it was hard to not laugh when this happened. The kid who fell hurt himself pretty good, his face was all cut up. The cop came up to me thinking I did it.

At least I got $42 out of it.

 

thats exactly what i did at the mall.

some idiot tried tojack my rims.

i was at meadows mall in vegas and my alarm starts paging me...does yours make the alarm sound? or just pages you? anyways. so mine starts paging me, and i bolt for my car and from inside the mall i see him outside jacking up my car getting ready to take my rims off, i walk out and around the back of him and ask him if he needs help, before he responds i say "hmmm...that tire flat?" he says "nah..i think i'm cool too, don't need help, just gonna get this off real quick and put the spare on. it's wobbling." my response:

"ah, wobbling? could be the hub centric ring.............but can't be that......cuz i just put those on my baby a couple weeks ago..."

he keeps going for a split second.. then i guess he realized what i said and pauses and i punch him


then call the cops, cops come, look at him, look at the tool, look at me, take out handcuffs and don't even ask questions. i take that back, i just wanted to include the last part cuz it sounded cool, they asked a bunch of questions...to write the report and wahtnot but still.


tehy didn't ask questions................

 

Nope, the alarm doesn't sound but the lights flash. The ignition cuts and everything else it's supposed to do, but I asked the place installing it for me to not let the siren go off. Though it does have stickers for the alarm on the window and the little LED flashing inside if anyone looks.

If the siren did blare, it would just scare them off before I could catch them. So far all of the guys I've been able to call the cops on.

 

cool, thats how i got mine too cept i have mine so i can turn it on and off, can you?

 

hilarious .. one of the best threads ever. Ahhh .. thats freakin awesome. I wouldnt know what I'd do. Probably have an adrenaline rush and start stomping those foos. Hahah

 

Your Lucky Because Youve Caught Everyone In The Act. Damn .. Hopefully Nothing Ever Happens To Your Car. That'll Just Be Another Sad Thread.
