Never thought it would happen to me!

Coming Home
Sorry for the bad news and I can agree that reading other threads put you in the mind state that it may not happen to you (only others) and the impact it has when you actually go through a similar experience. Damn dirt bags. People like us work hard everyday to have some of the good things in life while those Oxygen Theives ruin everything. Now that I have orders to be stationed back in the States, I'm a little worried about having a Stang (modified one at that) parked around fearing someone will cause some damage to it.
Good luck with the outcome, also, would your insurance cover this??

That's awful. Hopefully it will be good as new once repaired. And you're right about parking your car away from others - it probably makes it more of a target. I do the same thing and now I'm wondering if that's such a good idea. You can't win either way since someone will certainly scratch the car in a parking lot. Good luck!

That's my biggest fear, someone messing with my car. All of the work we put into them, only to have some tard come along and ef it up. Some people are just born to be tool bags. I try to remind myself that it's only a car, and that's why I have Insurance, etc. Well, I hope that it all works out for you with the repairs and all.

If they were to link the prints to say, a repeat perp or someone already on record - then the perp is in deep do-do, insofar as a warrant would be put out for them. If they are not on record - then good luck until they are eventually caught - even then it's rare they go back and run old cases against new prints.
If they 'do' link the prints to someone and they can put their hands on him/her - yes that is attempted breaking and entering, vandalism (property damage under $X amount), and potentially attempted grand theft larceny - a felony.

I had something similar happen years ago back in college. Come out to my car one morning (Customized NOVA). Find the core completely missing from one lock and the other one was completely scratched from where they tried to get it out. They never got in the car though. Area around the locks was completely scratched and dented. Pissed me off. Ended up having to hide the damage with those stick on protectors that you used to put around the door lock.
