Rim thief
 
Well Guys. im here to tell you a storie :D I made a thread about half years ago about my rims being stolen, ever since then I had parked my Z outside with no wheel lock just plain everything. I wake up every night at 3AM and 5AM current(4:36AM) every night and look at my car parked outside. Guess what i found tonight! I find the same mexican guy that stole my rims half years ago. hes back to steal my rims again!!! I just laughed inside my house as he was sneaking around my car doing all the lugnuts. so I called 911 told them a dude had weapons and he is tryin to steal my car. police came 3-4 mins and he tried to run. At the end he still got caught. funny thing is.. He drives an infiniti g35 mod/riced -___-; anways thats 1 thief off the block :D my hardwork paid off and its time to park my car inside from now on again.! remember guys dont park your car outside even if its right at your front door. they will still come for it if they can visabley see it. yup thats how addicting our Z are XD Gnight 370z forum

Wow first a serial scammer off the street and now this? It has been a good summer for the forum! Glad he got caught AND you still have your rims. Well played sir, well played.

zeexu 08-24-2013 04:02 AM

Yeah, I still have my rims and everything except for 5 lugnuts they took because they said it has the fingerprint of the guy that was tryin to steal my wheel. =\

Awesome! I love it when the bad guys pay the price for being stupid.
I always remember I had a senior chief in the Navy always say the "stupid shall be punished" I can't count how many times I have seen that played out over the years.

Congrats on catching this guy, but how do you know it was the same guy as last time if he got away with your rims, or did you catch him then as well http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/.../confused1.gif

Waiz 08-24-2013 10:32 AM

Lol omg you're insane but holy hell that's determination!!

axmea? 08-24-2013 12:49 PM

Great story. Glad you handled it safely and not take it on your own. Reminded me of a story from a forum member from Hawaii (if I recall correctly) who set up his own sting operation to recover his unique finished Gram Lights.

Rusty 08-24-2013 06:58 PM

This is great! :tup: Another idiot down. :tiphat: Best thing you told the cops is that he had weapons. Other wise they would have showed up later.

Amj2020 08-26-2013 09:54 AM

When I had to park my car outside I Was equally insane about checking on it. That being said

This is an epic victory, and I know NYPD likes to get a few free punches or kicks in, especially if you run!

JARblue 08-26-2013 10:04 AM

OMG this is awesome! :tup: Great job OP! :tiphat:

SouthArk370Z 08-26-2013 10:12 AM

Congratulations on the catch and I am most impressed with your dogged determination. :tiphat:

Luckily for me, things like this is not as common in South Arkansas but that may be because we still have the 2nd Amendment down here. ;)

Looks like "Karma" paid a visit to the perp that evening. That's one way to say, :gtfo2: . Props to you and as John "Hannibal" Smith used to say, "I love it when a plan comes together." (A-Team Reference).

RoshDawg 08-26-2013 10:46 AM

Hah wow that is some serious determination. Glad you caught the guy! Do you know how long he will serve? I'm assuming you got his name down and everything?

coolvans1988 08-26-2013 10:56 AM

I did not know that all hispanic/latinos are mexicans... :confused:

If I caught someone stealing my rims, you can bet that I wouldn't give two $hits about being politically correct when referring to their ethnicity.

6MT 08-26-2013 11:12 AM

Nice storie.

From the orig post: "the same mexican guy" (my emphasis)

For all I know, the OP is as racist as George Wallace and he was lumping all H/Ls together, but I see no evidence of such in his comment. Granted, the nationality of the perp is not really an important factor but I see nothing wrong with noting that fact. If some Redneck stole my stuff and then tried to do it again, I'd probably say he was a Redneck in my post.

A thief is a thief. Don't bring stupid PC crap into it. It doesn't matter their race. They are a low down dirty thief and he's lucky that crap wasnt in texas or he would have been shot and the shooter would have made the front page as a first class citizen.

Mt Tam I am 08-26-2013 11:14 AM

Leaving your car out as bait for such a long time is true dedication. So well done. I could never have done it.

agreed. a crook is a "crook" no matter who they are. supercedes ethnicity.

coolvans1988 08-26-2013 11:20 AM

i'm glad he was caught, no need to get all antsy Texas peeps. :wtf2:

LOL Don't forget us Arkies. :P

Even in TX, one can be on shaky ground shooting a thief outside your home. I certainly wouldn't recommend doing it but many Good Ol' Boys are willing to take their chances with a jury of their peers. I keep my hands off of other peoples' stuff. ;)

XiP 08-26-2013 11:48 AM

that's why folks around here they always say if you shoot someone drag them into your house :P

LiquidCrewZ 08-26-2013 12:01 PM

Nice, hope he gets what's coming to him!

ZMan8 08-26-2013 12:15 PM

great job OP :tiphat: on doing the car community a good service.
