Default Compressor Killer! Beware... kinda funny!

Well I went to use my 5.5 Hp compressor yesterday to paint a couple pieces of trim and I came to find that my compressor was completely destroyed.
The Theory is that a disgruntled neighbor came over ripped the plug out of the wall, the third prong is still in the socket and smashed the crap out of it with something.... Normally I would say it fell but it has a guard and all the internal are even destroyed. Even the compressor plug was cracked...
It was probably the same neighbors that called the police to report noise pollution...
Beware of Compressor Killers
Heres some pics

Unbelievable. Time for a louder compressor and lock it up at night.

wow I can't believe someone would do that. +1 for the louder compressor and locking it in garage.

also maybe I suggest open headers for revving at 1 AM.

set off their car alarms with your exhaust, that'll also **** 'em off.

are you serious...your neighbour came into your shed and smashed up your compressor???

At the very least i would throw it through the windshield of his car with a note asking him to repair it orelse.

I think the Mustang now needs a serious exhaust upgrade...long tubes, hotdogs, straight out the neighbours side of the car[8D]

Have the fuzz come out and print it, report it as a tresspassing/vandalism, and have your neighbor investigated.
