Has anybody in here been robbed?

[Indiana]

So my house was broken into Saturday night while I was out. No idea who it could have been. Interesting thing is that the only thing they stole was a few pieces of jewerly and my Colts tickts for the game tonight. I forgot to set the alarm but I'm scared chitless about it. Anybody experience this type of thing? Dam, now I will have to watch the game on TV. I could go to the game and try to find who is sitting in my seat but they prolly won't be the actual thief.

It's only some jewelery and some football tickets, probably something I could replace playing .25/.50 for a few hours. Don't sweat it man.

[boedeker]

i got robbed last december. i was out of town but my girlfriend was around and it really freaked her out for a while after. i was alright about it, we added more locks.

sorry.

[Indiana]

Dude, do you know how expensive a Monday night Colts game is? I had 4 tickets man. Our stadium is really small too so that ups the price.

[lorinda]

When I played MTG seriously, someone broke into our house and emptied about $2-3k worth of my magic cards onto the floor out of a bag - so they could use the bag to carry out a 5 year old VCR which they might have got $50 for if they were lucky.

since it is Colts tix and jewelry, do you think it is someone you know?

I have no idea who it was, that's what scares me man. They couldn't have come in just for my tickets, I was just stupid enough to have them sitting in my jewerly box on the bathroom sink. I'm getting a Rotweiler.

A lot of robberies and crimes are very situational; a drunk guy will just go around trying doors or looking for a dark house. There could easily be no particular logic to why it happened to you on any particular night.

Of course, there's no better security device than a big, territorial dog. Might want to consider it. His alarm is always on.

Do you have season tickets? If so just go find the person scalping your tickets. If they are actually using them (doesn't seem likely) you know where they are going to be at 8pm tonight. You might be able to convince the stadium/team that you were in fact robbed and to let you have your seats/help find out who used the tickets or something.

people who break into places for low hundreds worth of goods are pretty much first-class morons too. it's not likely, but i wouldn't be amazingly surprised if the ticket users were infact the robbers. perhaps the OP will recognize them whoever they are (friend of a "friend" and that sort of thing). perhaps they will identify the people who did it. who knows? it's not a terrific amount of effort and i'd be happy to do it if there's a non-zero chance of somebody actually getting nailed as a result of it.

Probably, but too friggin bad for them. It's called receiving stolen property!
Even if they didn't know, scalping is still illegal in most states.

Someone took all the change and my bag out of my car while i was at college (i had forgotten to lock it). Monetarily it wasn't so bad, but it sucked losing all my notes and textbooks for the semester.

As long as they are season tickets you should at least be able to go to the game still.

I've had my cars broken into 4 times. Lost two windows, one deck+changer+speakers, a coat, a backpack, some softball equipment, various CDs (including a a Mobb Deep CD when the cops actually got the guys in the act, but let them keep the CD since they decided that it likely belong to the thieves because it was unlikely the owner of a lowered 91 Civic SI listened to "gangster rap"), and the cost of repairing a damaged stearing column from a failed attempt to actually take the care.

I've had a bike stolen from under my apartment, but that's because I was lazy and locked it through the front wheel and then ignored it for 3 weeks.

Same here - my house was broken into in 12/01, and the guy grabbed everything he could fit into my backpack, which was lying in my room. /images/graemlins/mad.gif Digcam, PDA, watch, some cash...and left behind the MTG binders. One had a complete set of Unlimited in it, and another had an Arabian Nights and an Antiquities set in it.

[Wes ManTooth]

Once my car was stolen, about a weak later a friend of mine saw it in someone's driveway as he happen to be driving by in a town that was about 15 minutes from were I lived. He called me and I quickly went over to check it out. My friend and I checked my car and it looked fine with the exception of the alarm being messed with, I went to the house (ready to beat the $^%& out of whoever answered the door) only to find an old lady home and she claimed that she thought it was her grandsons friends car. I told her that I was there to pick it up. I had my keys got in and took off. Later on that night I called the police that I had filled the report with and told them the story. They researched it and the next day it turned out that the person that stole my car was arrested a few days earlier for drug related charges and they could not on additional theft charges because they have no proof that he actually took the car because I had already taken it back.

[HopeydaFish]

You'll be able to go to the game. Just call the stadium and tell them your tickets were stolen. They'll print you some new ones. If they have the system where they have barcode readers for the tickets on the way in, they'll de-activate the stolen tickets so that they can't be used.

A friend of mine lost her ticket to an NHL playoff game a couple of years ago. She was upset because she figured she was out of luck, but called the box office just in case. They didn't even hesitate on printing her a new ticket.

I worked in some convenience stores for a while and was robbed at gunpoint multiple times. Isn't very fun.

[SCfuji]

is this a common thing in your neighborhood? did anybody around see anything suspicious? (yes i know it was at night but you never know).

[RacersEdge]

I would definitely call the cops on this one and have them see who takes those seats. Probably not the thief, but who knows - maybe the people would have the thief's cell number or something. You hear about stupid crimes all the time.

Someone tried to break into my home once. I work the evening shift and was home around 10:30am when I heard someone knock on the front door. I ignored it like usual, but then heard someone a couple minutes later at the back door fidgeting with the lock. I appeared in a blaze of anger and this guy took off quickly and ran through the neighbor's yard to get away. I then called the police and they did next to nothing of course. Not sure if I should have taken a different course of action, but I freaked quickly.

By the way, when someone breaks into your home when you are not there it is a burglary. Robbery is when someone takes something from you in person.

[tonypaladino]

I was mugged at knifepoint twice outside my highschool, by the same guy, two weeks apart. The second time I told him to F Off and when I went back into the building he was still hangling around outside, so I got the school cop and she arrested him. Dumbass.

As for home invasions-- There is a funeral home two doors up from me, and one night in March some kid apparently was trying to break in through the roof. The owner was in there and called the cops, but he had no roof access through his building, so I had to let the hops in my apartment, and 15 of them ran up to my roof, got the kid, and he was arrested in my kitchen. Fun times.

About 2 weeks ago my friends house got broken in to. They took the TV, DVD player, Nintendo, and SNES, but no DVDs or games except for Mortal Kombat, which was in the SNES.

Also, my roommates car got broken into a little bit ago. They took his video camera (he's a film major, pwned) and his backpack. The shitty part is that the cop said that a lot on pre-99 Pontiacs had been broken into lately because somehow a copy of a master key got out, that would open most cars. I thought that was pretty shitty that Pontiac not only has a master key, but that they somehow allowed it to get out.

This once saved my 8-month pregnant wife's life when I was out of town on business. As an added bonus, the cops got there in less than 1 minute, which surprised the heck outta me. They also protect children very well.

This happened to me as well, only things that were missing was my cologne and the change from my center console. They didn't take the tons of CD's I had in the backseat, any of the audio or anything, just the change and cologne.

I was determined to go out and find a good smelling bum.

I can top this. My parents had a video game route and I used to go around making the collections. After one stop I saw I somehow left the passenger side door unlocked. I later found that my half dozen or so cassette tapes were gone from the glove box. The huge bank bag filled with quarters I had in the hatchback was untouched.

No. I used to work for a car dealer, and I would have to cut keys from the code for people who lost them. There are tens of thousands of different keys possible, with several different possible blanks per model, and each car had a unique code.

Yep, I had like an '89 accord and one day I was walking to the parking lot from the library, unlock the door and get in the car , go to start the engine and realize suddenly my car is a lot cleaner inside. Of course, it wasn't my car - just one of many blue accords out there. But very weird.

[rohjoh]

My house was broken into while I was sleeping. This was back in college, and I had fallen asleep while studing statistics(I do not know how), and woke up when I heard what I thought was my room mate walking on the wood floors. My bedroom door had a slider, which slid open, and a flashlight shone in on my face. I jumped out of bed, picked up the statistics book, about 15 lbs, and hurled it in the direction of the flash light, as I shouted WTF are you doing in here!. The book hit the wall next to the door, and put a large hole in the wall. The would be robber, ran out the front door. Cops never caught the guy.

I bought a rotewiller the next day named Otto. He was a puppy, but grew up to be 125LBS, never had any problems after that.

[Georgia Avenue]

This happened to my parents when I was very young. Some junkies climbed into an open window while we were sleeping and took my grandma's silverware out of a cabinet. How they knew where it was I'll never know. It was in fact the only thing of any value in the house. We woke up as they dropped a bunch of it on the floor scramblin back out. My genius father left the window open a few monthes later and woke up that night to hear them scurrying around like cockroaches in the living room...so he grabs a broom out of the closet and runs out there shouting like they're wild racoons, and of course they go hopping out the window again. My dog slept through both incidents, as did I.

Years later, whenever I got locked out of the house I knew I could climp up onto the back porch roof and go in that window. My family wins the Darwin Award. It's probably unlocked right now if anyone wants a black and white TV or some Junior Mints...

[handsome]

Back when my parents had a house, we were robbed twice. The first time they slim-jimmed a window to get in and took our VCR + some goodies. The second time they pushed in the air conditioner and took jewelry + my cassette player. I was pissed beyond pissed. I think the thieves were the Mexican workers that mowed the grass around the neighborhood.

When I was living on campus, I was robbed of my digital camera, SLR camera and $200 headphones. I'm pretty sure it was one of my roommates.

That reminds me of the time I came back from the DMV with my new current year's license plate sticker and put it on, yes, an identical blue car a few feet from mine. Funny, the car door wouldn't open. Funnier still, the car was a lot cleaner than mine inside. And funniest of all, there was new stuff in there I had never seen before.

The stickers are virtually impossible to remove without destroying them, too. Boy, did they think that was the stupidest thing they ever heard, back inside, when I went to ask them to print me another sticker. Let me tell ya, when even clerks at the DMV think you're an idiot, you're in bad shape.

[d10]

Not out of my house but I had my car broken into. Fortunately it happened right as I was getting ready for bed (like 3am) and part of my routine is to take a look at my car just to admire how sexy it is. Turned out this night some other guys were admiring it too, which at first I didn't think much of, cause people stop and check out my car all the time, but then I realized it was 3am and I figured out what was going on. I ran downstairs and grabbed a baseball bat and then ran as fast as I've ever run out my front door. Fortunately they ran faster, I was so pumped on adrenaline I probably would have taken one of their heads clean off with 1 swing and ended up in jail. I launched the bat at the back of their car as they were driving off and cracked the back windshield pretty good. They ran off with my faceplate which cost me $250 to replace but I still had the stereo and about $1500 of additional equipment. But it still pisses me off that none of them were ever arrested or beaten to death. That would have made the $250 all worth it.

But anyways, I know how you feel. I was pissed off and paranoid for like a week after that incident. It sucks.

[radek2166]

Yes I was 16 robbed by to black guys around 30ish. Asked me I I wanted to buy a gun, I said no. They stuck me up with that gun for 2 dollars and a watch. I had 50 in my other pocket. Scared the [censored] out of me.

When I was in high school, some gangbanger kid hit me with a police baton and tried to steal my CD player, but I got away. I was able to indentify him and the cops picked him up. He was expelled from school, but I was never called to testify, so I assume he just received a slap on the wrist.

Been car-jacked twice, never had my home broken into. I live in a condo building with 24-hour security though, so it's pretty unlikely.

Being car-jacked was about the scariest thing to ever happen to me. Nothing like sitting there thinking you have about a %50 chance of survival.

Also, interestingly enough, I lost about $160 from the two robberies combined, despite having considerably more cash on me both times.

I was at a Getty station late one night getting a tank of gas on rt.22 in New Jersey. All of a sudden some black dude jumps in front of the driver side window, sticks a gun in my face and tells me to get out of the car. I got out and he tells me to give him my wallet. I told him I dont have a wallet. I had about 50$ cash in my pocket but didnt want to give it up. He looked at me for like 2 seconds, his buddy just jacked the attendant for all his cash and was like "com on lets go, man". He gos "move and your dead". Then he jumped in the car with hid buddy and they took off.
I then jumped in my car, the gas pump was still in my tank, and took off. I ripped the hose right out of the pump as I drove away and gas was spewing out everywhere. The guy running the place was chasing after me and cursing at me because I didnt pay for the gas and screwed up his pump.

Yes. When I found out who it was I walked into his house and put my knee in his face. The next day the cops showed up at my door laughing. They said I got him real good but they still had to charge me with assault.

So what's the word, Indiana? Did you go to the game? Any Police activity?

Update requested....

[Indiana]

Nah I didnt go. I tried calling the box office for help but no can do. I don't have time to worry about tracking anybody down. Thanks for the concern though.

So my house was broken into Saturday night while I was out. No idea who it could have been. Interesting thing is that the only thing they stole was a few pieces of jewerly and my Colts tickts for the game tonight. I forgot to set the alarm but I'm scared chitless about it. Anybody experience this type of thing? Dam, now I will have to watch the game on TV. I could go to the game and try to find who is sitting in my seat but they prolly won't be the actual thief.

Someone attempted to steal my car out of my garage and ended up with two bullets in his chest.

The story is in OOT somewhere but I am too lazy to find it.
