I popped into my local tonight for a couple of beers, got home about 10:30.
I went straight to bed and within 10 mins could hear some noises, in the pitch dark I put on my jeans, sweatshirt, trainers and grabbed my baseball bat.
I sneaked down the stairs and looked all around the house, I then opened the front door and quietly let myself out. I knew straight away that something was up, cos I could see the do-gooders curtains twitching across the road.
I must of been heard because two boys with baseball caps ran off down the road, I went to see what they had been doing, and found the elderly neighbours rear side window had been smashed and the drivers door partly bent back. I gave chase but was a fair way behind them at this time.
I was not sure which direction they had gone at the end of the road but I took a guess, I then saw a car parked in the middle of a side road with the lights off. As I approached it carefully, the engine started and it drove past me. I had been calling and speaking to the police as I was running down the road, the police took a while to turn up because they had seen the car as I had told the operator the direction the vehicle would be travelling in. (Again a guess what estate the **** were from) The police said they turned around to chase it after passing in the opposite direction but lost it.
I only got a partial registration number because they had driven off without lights. The police turned up and said they are dealing with loads of this, they also seemed to know the owner of the vehicle after I gave them a description including the nearside barke light not working, and they confirmed the full registration after I gave them the first letter and following number.
It sounds like nothing will be done, because they weren't caught in the act. I dropped my baseball bat over the fence before giving chase, because we wouldn't want one of those lovely pillars of society hurt or go upsetting the do-gooders would we.:rolleyes:
The old dear across the road was a bit shaken up by it all, I guess they had target her car as it was the same make and colour as the thieves car.
Bring back hanging I say!
PS: I was apparently the only person to report the incident, the do-gooders opposite obviously did nothing more than curtain twitch. I guess its because they dont like to acknowledge there are any bad people in the world. I must admit though, I wouldn't of bothered taking chase if it was there car.
