Exclamation Break-Ins in my Area, Marin County!

Break-Ins in my Area, Marin County

Recently, there have been a rash of break-ins between the areas of San Rafael and Miller Creek/Marinwood. As of last night, one of the vehicles at my place of residence was broken into. We have contacted the Sherriffs and they are aware of a ring of kids looking for iPods and Phones to steal. Please keep an eye out if there is any unusual activity in your neighborhood.


Now the part that pisses me off; I found my car cover on the ground this morning with the front uncovered. It's tied off at the doors but it doesn't look like they got into it. They appear only to be going for cars that are unlocked at night. I didn't get the chance to do any further inspecting as I was already late for work.


If I find out who these kids are, I will not be so easy on them in a very immoral way.

I would find new uses for your key on them if there are scratches. Big key can fit in a lot of interesting places on them!

Sounds like a few unstimulated obama voters have invaded your neighborhood. Hope the local constabulatory finds them soon.

They better find them before I do in my neighborhood because things will get ugly. I am absolutely infuriated still regardless of my car possibly being unharmed. i have 7 more hours of suspense to go here and I have been grinding my teeth about it since 3.

From what I heard this is the second time they hit our neighborhood. This time our home wasn't so lucky.

drill a hole just large enough to fit a rifle (paintball/airsoft) through with a site. Then sit up there and wait for them to return.
Once they step onto your property. Unleash HELL. I can guarentee you if they get away they will never touch your house again!

Just got back... The 928 was unmolested Thank God. Found out they ripped off a thousand dollars worth of stuff out of the neighbor's car. This still means war and my AR-15 is just nearing completion...

I had someone get into my unlocked snowmobile trailer parked on the side of the garage......stole an empty gas can. Climbed over my sleds to get them. No damage. Installed motion sensor floods, locked the trailer, and got a Remington 870. Nobody's come back....damnit. No trespassing signs are prominently displayed...I'm ready.

Put the cover on the car...and take a nap inside the car one night. Perhaps you could scare the crap out of them.

Or...Double sided tape, spray paint a couple of mouse traps the same color as your car and secure them to the door handles. Fumbling around at night...looking to see if anyone is watching, they wont see them at all.
If anything it would be good for a chuckle in the morning when you go out to check on the car and see them "sprung"
