Frank, sorry to hear that this happened to you. I believe I know the apartments you are talking about. I hate taking patients over that way and am typically on my toes, due to it. Hope BGPD catches him and hopefully you can recoup some of the damages. It's doubtful, but you gotta stay positive.
Frank, glad everyone is ok, I wish you would have shot him, I would have said not guilty.
I'll remember to request any criminal trials where I am the defendant be moved to Evansville!
Nope, if you're pointing a gun, it should be to kill. Leave the non-lethal stuff for the riot policeSorry to hear this. Nothing worse than that violated feeling after a theft.
After reading all these posts, now I'm wondering if I should add a saddle to my HD 870 just for the simple task of quick access to non-lethal/beanbag loads?
As a guy who was bean bag certified (Supersock rounds), you can kill very easily with beanbags. It is the force equivalent of getting hit with a major league pitch. Stick with real bullets and use as appropriate.Sorry to hear this. Nothing worse than that violated feeling after a theft.

I hope you weren't too attached to that truck or that you know someone who will work on it for free.An update on this whole thing: So far the guy hasn't been identified. The BGPD detective assigned called me a week or so ago and talked to me about the case, but I haven't heard from her since. I can't say that I would be able to recognize the guy again because I only got a brief glimpse of his face, so unless he is identified by fingerprints from the tools he left behind there most likely won't be any charges pressed.
The estimate for the damage to the truck, which includes the transmission not working correctly since the incident, is $6875. $3575 for the transmission/labor, $1500 for the steering column parts/labor, and $1800 for the body damage. The Kelley Blue Book value for the truck (pre damage) is $5400, so I'm not sure what my insurance company is going to say as far as having it repaired. They are going to send out an appraiser next week to look at it.
Well, that sucks.
Would it ever be "right" if repaired?
