I got my van back
I WEROTE ON HERE DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY ABOUT MY VAN BEING STOLEN
yesterday , I test drove a couple clunker pick/ups . I was going to buy one for $1200.
right after I finished driving one , I got a call
a fellow called , and asked if I was missing my van. he got my number from the side of the van.
it was sitting in a Miramar apartment parking loT,
( that's a city 40 miles north of me)
he happened to be a security guard , who was off duty , but saw all this from his apartment window when he was just getting home.
he saw when it was dropped off by a couple guys , and saw them taking stuff out of it , and driving away
I flew up there with my carpenter " john"
Miramar police met me.
2 door locks broken , and the ignition was destroyed.
but 70% or more of my power tools are still in it . my tools are in 5 foot long wood drawers i built in the van , they couldn`t get to them.
all my hand tools are still in it .
they took my digital camera, compressor , and battery tools.
cops said a trailer full of lawn equipment was also stolen from my area . they believe the thieves used my van to towed that trailer off.
aside from that , I drove it home , happy as can be .
I`ll take that loss
thank you for your kind words
