Some ****** ****** just tried to steal my truck.

[Frank_N_Stein]

Out of my own damn driveway. Woke up to squealing tires and the wife yelling at me that "someone is stealing our truck!". Lucky for me he high-centered it on a piece of firewood that was next to it and couldn't get the job done. The column is cracked, there are scratches dowm the passenger side, and he smashed into and damaged my fence. I got a good look at him as I was coming out of the house with .45 in hand, but being barefoot and in my underwear I couldn't catch him. BGPD was close by but couldn't locate him either. I'm so ****ty right now, and he's lucky Indiana doesn't allow the killing of thieves.

I live in beech grove as well. Without volunteering too much information (with respect to your privacy) about what area of beech grove did this occur? I'll have to keep an extra eye out for suspicious individuals.

A few weeks ago while I was at work my wife said someone came up and knocked on the door and rang the doorbell. She just looked out the window on the main door and a guy said "I need help, I ran out of gas". She told him to fund somewhere else because she wasn't interested. She said as he walked away he was attempting to look into our windows. The glock has been extra close since then and I out a new back door and deadbolt on that week.

Takes some big balls to try to steal a truck with a police cruiser sitting in the driveway...

I don't park it outside, but everyone knows I'm a cop.

Who wrecks a car backing it out of a driveway ? Sounds like a dumb kid. What did they look like ?

You'd understand if you saw my driveway.

This worries me. I don't live far at all from where this happened. And just the other night I had someone at my door asking about subscriptions to the Sunday paper. He seemed a little suspicious. Kept looking in through my front door and scanning the room. I guess I'll have to actually get up and check every time the dogs bark now.

What the heck is going on this morning? My wife and her friends were just robbed in my driveway.

Sounds like you guys need to start a neighborhood watch.

My neighbors were letting their dog out last night around 830 when it started barking/growling. Someone was either looking in their ElCamino or casing the house. The car is about 6 feet from their house at the back corner where their porch is. Stupid kid took off running towards the houses behind us instead of running out front where they would of thought the dog saw an animal or something.

I can't stand piece of **** thieves that cause that kind of damage to others just because they don't have a pot to **** in. I wish that one would have caught a nasty case of lead poisoning.

Apparently not EVERYONE. LOL

Given your description of the event, I'm pretty sure if they looked over their shoulder and saw you they will be scarred for life. So you have that consolation.

Glad they didn't get it.

I guess given all of the reports on here this am, last night was a pretty busy night.

I live in beech grove too. Those apartments at 9th and Thompson. The fiance and I need to budget ourselves so we can put some good $ down on a house. So we chose to live here.
I'll tell ya... I've had the handgun and flashlight out more than a handful of times during the depths of the night.
Once the alarm went off, and the alarm has a 15sec delay from when its triggered and when it goes off. When it woke me up, I probably set a world record for opening a night stand, selecting the first gun I felt, then chambering a rd. Went downstairs and saw the screen door hand been tampered with.
I also have a silent alarm (notification system) on my gsxr 1000 and cobra. I usually keep them at my parents because they have room, but 1/4 of the time I take them out and they end up in this parking lot over night, I'll get a rude wakeup with my phone flipping s**t at 3 am (have an alarm app). Grab a AR or AK and go to the window. Sure enough there's a punk messing with my vehicle. But a "yell" will usually suffice. BG is theft central!

That had to be tempting. And now you get to spend your own money repairing the stuff he messed up. Despicable people.

Is your wife a very light sleeper or was she up already? I guess the temperature went up 5 degrees since yesterday so the crime has to come up too eh?

Looks like we need to start a fund, "Tactical Pajamas for Frank."

Well, IF you can't drive than you got no business stealin' cars IMHO!

I hope you nail the prick to a board. Sell tickets to it and I'm first in line to watch.

They'll have to have footies in them, no doubt.

Very tempting, but I enjoy my freedom.
