Just giving my Scoob the once over from my bedroom window before retiring for the night when I notice a youth in dark clothes leaning an A(?) frame mountain bike against the lampost outside my house.
Said youth then ambles up the road looking around all the while.
I get dressed and go downstairs, out the back door, down the side alley and arrive at my side gate as he is coming back down the road.

He stops behind my car and just as he starts toward it he spots me leaning on my gate staring at him, he does a quick turn around hops on his bike and clears off.

I phone police, give them a description and they said they'd look out for him. There's not much they can do as he was only acting suspiciously.

Needless to say I'm not going to sleep much tonight, but that's nothing compared to what he'll get if I see him again.

Part of me hopes he doesn't comeback - part of me hopes he does and you give him a pasting. I've had loads of car theft attempts and its not nice.

 

You should have nicked his bike...

 

... and then rammed it up his ar$E

 

....... sideways !!!!

 

You lot are kinky!!!

 

What a stupid tw*t, just after I posted this message I turned the PC off,looked out the front window and there he was again!!! two houses up, with a torch peering into the back of two cars on the drive. My sensible head took over and I phoned the police again.

By the time I'd got out the house and up the side alley and onto the road they were there, 100 yds up the road talking to him.
I walked up there to let them know I was around and to get a good look at him.

He is known to the police, he lives in London, travels out to the suburbs by tube with his bike, rides around looking for easy targets and then returns home on the train.

They had too let him go after searching him (nothing found).

Part of me says I shouldn't have phoned the police the 2nd time but gone and had a go and given him a kicking. Trouble is I'm a law abiding citizen (apart from the odd speeding incident)and I have a responsibility to my family to be there for them, not in prison for handing a beating to a lowlife.

I was right, I didn't sleep much and feel tired now, I watched some of the Australian GP qualifying but that wasn't very interesting.

At the end of the day I think I did the right thing, he wasn't targetting my Scoob, he was looking for easy prey.
He didn't get any.

I know you won't read this you scumbag (you probably can't read anyway) but I won tonight

 

Well done mate.

You did the right thing calling the police, you never know he may of been carrying a knife or something.

Not worth the risk

Cheers

Where abouts in Herts are? This is getting a little close to home!

 

You done exactly the right thing spender, if you had bashed him one of 3 things could happen :

You would be charged with GBH
He wouldn't tell the police but pay you visit with the boys
He knifes you to get away and you die

Well done for being sensible and observant.

 

Shame you couldnt get a pic of him...

 

Who said I don't have a picture of him?
Maybe I have, maybe I haven't.
One thing is for sure, I am more intelligent than him, and if I did decide to hand out some rough justice I won't get caught doing it......................
But, as I said before, I am a law abiding citizen and probably won't get drawin into anything.
Mind you, if I find him in my house he's a d**d man.

 

well done spender... Good guys 1 Bad guys Lost

still like to help you park his bicycle though ....

 

got cctv watching over mine now after attempts to break in a couple of weeks ago....didn't bother chasing, let the dog do that...hope she bit em...you know what females get like when they get older ...a bit snappy! oh and trackstar fitted just in case.

 

Can you give more of a description?

Being Herts based, I'll like to spot trouble before anything happens.

Can't beleive the police know who he is and what he does, practically catch him 'in the act' and then do nothing. Surely a trip to the local station and a caution at the least?

 

You did the right thing mate

If you done him in, I reckon he would have been back for you or your car.

 

spender
what part of herts we cry

 

You did the right thing!

Sadly this incident "never happened", as no crime has been committed, you would not get a crime reference number, so the official statistics are all fluffy bunnies. [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Still, you probably saved someone a bit of grief (including yourself) and said scum might now stay away from your area.

mb

 

Good that the boys in blue took the incident seriously and nipped round pronto! Shame that they couldn't do anything though :-(

 

Next time 'who you going to call' - 'Gitbusters'.

 

The Plod should have roughed him up a bit, just in case he wasn't innocent, you know size 10 boot to the head or something!!!

"Oh dear, you appear to have fallen over. Dont headbutt the Police car, thats not very nice!!!"

hahahah SCUM

well done Spender

BB

 

yeah kiss the car

 

I left my missus Golf Gti Mk2 outside my flat last Saturday night while I took my scoob down to London, get back to find soem scum has damaged both doors and dented both doors, and f*****ed the interior to nick the stereo, probaably about a grands worth of damage. Makes me sick, where I park my car I can see it from my window, so say if they ever come back and I lamp then one with the plank of wood I have in my room, I get a bolloxing I guess.
I would not of minded the loss of the stereo so much if the car had been so marked up with what looked like one blunt screw driver.
Since the incident I've become more paranoid and dis-trustful for my scoob, who ever took the stereo can't have any respect for cars or other peoples property, this Saturday night I will be keeping an eye out!
