alright idk where to begin lol k it started wednesday night after i got off work technically thursday morning i got off work at midnight, got home around 12:15am and came inside my house and knocked the hell out about fifteen mins later my dad was bangin at my door telling me to go outside! lol so i threw on some shorts and a t shirt and ran outside and in the middle of my street was a HUGE flatbed tow truck with a flat tire it was backed up into my drive way, anyways here's what happened as i saw on the police report, theres a man down the street that owns a tow truck company and parks his over night flat bed across the street from his house, two guys had the bright idea of stealing the truck driving to my house and stealing my em1, anyways they stole the truck. were headed toward my street and right before u enter my street there's a pretty sharp turn, they were goin too fast and popped the drivers front tires bead right off the rim, they said **** it and continued down the street toward my house, now they go to my house and attempted to maneuver the flat bed onto my driveway and with a flat tire and cars parked on the street apparently it was pretty damn hard, my parents and a lot of neighbors heard the air brakes, the reverse beep of the tow truck and the engine revving since they didn't know how to drive the damned thing, so ppl started coming out of they're houses and the guys get out and start running, the dumbass passanger drops his cell phone when he jumped out but didn't realize it, the cops were called and when they arrived they called the owner of the truck and they found the cell, anyways two days later, which would be friday night, the cops call the guys house (HOME on his cellphone) trace the call and show up and arrest both guys on site. the cops ask them what they were gonna do with the tow truck and they say, well we really wanted that blue honda and stole the truck to steal the car and now they're both in jail for stealing the tow truck, attempted theft of my car, and they have to pay 14k worth of damages for the street and for the tow truck

 

wish i was that lucky with my em1......cheers to you though,just remember now u need an extra layer of security

 

i thought it was pretty safe where i live but yeah man im orderin a wheel boot

 

good story

 

most retarded theives in the world.. I mean why would they admit to trying to steal your car? idiots.. anyways how old were they? I would say based on the story 13 year olds.. lol

 

lol it was a 24 year old and a 19 year old oswaldo and omar, they blacked last names out of the report or else id post those too..

 

GOOD ****! Made my night. Funny as hell. Seriously how S****d can the average californian be? Dumb NOOBS....LoL.

Glad you kept your civic though.....lets just say GOD was on your side that night.

 

thanks!

funny thing is that same week i dreamt my car got stolen twice, both times they succeeded, one it was completely stripped the other they took my recaros and the motor

 

which reminds me never to go to Cali.im going to stay over here on the east coast. lol those 2 deserve to get but raped for that s**t.

 

these guys were dumb though, im sure if they did take it they wouldnt know what to do with it, and if they did take it hopefully theyd strap it down right at least, i had a friend whos teg was getting towed to a shop and the driver didnt strap it down right and the car fell off the flatbed, he got a new free teg but still that sucks *** to hear..

 

What a bunch of morons! Seriously, steal a truck to steal a Civic. Why didn't they just try and steal the Civic - oh wait, bet they prolly couldn't drive a stick

 

Wow, They obviously weren't the brightest crayons in the box.. Lol i laughed all the way threw the story. Glad you kept your civi tho man.

 

lol thats a good laugh.

 

i cant believe that they were stupid enough to drop there cellphone..idiot,,,and why not just steal it there,,it aint like if they were stealing a type r ...freakin dumb a$$es...you need to keep a closer eye and ear on your car...

 

you are one LUCKY *** person.
but those kids.
tisk tisk. nothing but idiots!
they should be hanged and you should be the 1 pulling the lever that makes the trap door open.
DAMN THIS COUNTRY AND ITS "no cruel and unusual punishment"

 

You still have your car. Thank god.

 

it made me laugh when i first heard what actually happen then i was like wow those guys are dumb lol oh well im glad i still have my car

 

That's freakin' crazy man.
What dumb thieves though, lmao.

 

this is nuts, i know a girl whos si was stolen thie same way. so who in the ops area knows oswaldo and or omar. maybe they are on here. if people post the names of these theives we can find out who they are cause im sure they are lurkin.

 

Em1 are very popular cars.
We need to be very careful with our cars.
specially now that the economy is down thieves are desperate for money.
Keep eye open man.

 

nice story. did you post this on the socal forum? what city do you live in?

 

Man, thievery is rampant lately. Some idiot broke my weatherstrip on my door to try to pry open my window. A lot of times, i'd be sitting outside and someone would drop a guy off, he'd run up to my car and then call his cell phone and be like, he got autolock and then run off.

Good thing I live in a quiet neighborhood with low crime and have low jack sukas

 

lol, never expect a save neighborhood in Socal. I lost my spoiler for my 96 accord and 3 weeks later, after I ordered a new spoiler, I saw it on a 94 mazda 323 and it is still in the same condition. I knew it because I had a noticable pain chipping on the tip of my spoiler. Can you imagine a tan 323 with a green accord spoiler?? I should've take pic of that bastard. It was freakin ugly as hell...

 

lucky dog. pretty funny though.

 

wow!!
thats an early xmas gift for you..
and for us too!!
atleast 2 thieves are out of the street!!
