Default Found Another Stolen ITR in the Bronx

More details to come. I was getting cash at my bank and went down a back road in Co-op City and a PY ITR sitting there. Looks like in pre-stripped condition. It is banged up though. I just called cops, they put me on hold and seemed dissinterested. I have to run to Church service now...I am getting my digicam and taking pics later tonight. Too bad I left my cell phone at work, or I would of called cops from the location. Stay tuned.

NYC is a cesspool. Unfortunately this is a common occurance in our area.

about to leave now....this is the second ITR I have found, but two to three other friends (including me) had their ITR's stolen. So that is about five ITR's....

What alot people don't realize is that some of the Bronx is quiet residential streets or undeveloped streets. You can almost build a building with tons of noise and noone will notice !!

In fact, in my back yard I have seen prairie hawks, pheasants, rabbits, raccoons, snakes, blue jays, cardinals, etc. (yes in the Bronx).

Ok, be back in about three hours.....

Man that sucks. Some poor guy must be sick to his stomach knowing his car is gone.

On a separate note, I wonder what happens to the shell? I want to buy a shell, but not damaged. Wonder if I can contact an insurance company a inquire about purchasing one?

I took some pics. They are not great quality, because honestly it is night and I was nervous. They put four lugs on the car, a crap fender and bumpers. The interior is gutted, but surprisingly the airbags are still intact. Since the airbags are there, it must be stolen for a swap.

People that do this type of thing should be stripped and gutted for a "Swap" and left lying somewhere.

Thats really messed up, those pics make me sick to my stomach, I hate theives man...just gotta watch out for them.

When you go to race track events, watch out for who's eyeing your car

When you park on the street always look behind you and dont leave the car unattended for too long

Eventually I believe that all car theives will get what they deserve....they got something bad coming to them

I agree... I especially would like to see thieves in the US punished just like those in undeveloped countries. If some 16 year old punk gets caught stealing a car and gets his hand chopped off at the wrist as a penalty...I GUARANTEE you that the theft rates would begin to decline very quickly...
