Some bastards have been into my mates Landrover up near Efford , caused damage breaking in and stole stuff as bellow , so if any one gets offered any cheap gear please ring me straight away ...cheers Email i got from Paul;- Thieving bastards have had two boxes of offroading gear away out of my 90. I would really appreciate any info if anyone is offered the gear on the cheap in the Plymouth area. The boxes are quite distinctive as they were ex british airways aluminium storage boxes, one contained recovery gear, strops, numerous shackles, rope, snatch block and high lift jack adaptor. The other was full of repair gear, jump leads, tool roll, socket set etc. Please post on any of your club forums, I know theres not a chance of getting the gear back but would appreciate the chance of getting even with the light fingered bstrds!!! If any lead on this comes to light there is a reward... thanks alot |

three eastern europeans tried to brek into my landy last night right outside the house early mornin 12.30am , woke me up with the CTV coming on upstairs... Soon as i wacked the upstairs window open to yell at the bastard in the Back tub trying to open the rear truckcab window , n the other 2 tyring to prise open passenger door, shouted somat to each other in russian or eastern somat to run like fck!! Time i got to front door , they wer at top of street sprinting n yelling stuff in foreign language.. Cops come round within 5 mins , crime number etc , whateva good that'l be . Luckily no damage as i awoke straight away as usuall with the noise n disturbances on our street... Keep eyes out for 3 eastern europeans about 6ft tall scruffy casuall gear on, apart from that it was street lights n dark , so discriptions limited!!! Punishment Beatings :angry: :angry:

It makes my blood boil, thieving c**ts. I had my van broken into outside my bedroom window (which if you know where I live is along way from anywhere public and through/ over a locked gateway.) The necky twit nicked all my tools from the van. Which is a real shit when you're a self employed builder. Even more so when your insurance won't pay out coz there thieving twąts as well. The police got a DNA hit coz the idiot left his torch at the scene. The scumbag is linked to 70plus other break ins, but they had to let him walk as the DNA hit was insufficient evidence. Unsurprisingly the copper wouldn't give me his details, as I have a 90mm framing nailer with his name on it. I think he'd find it hard being quiet with two bits of 4x2 nailed to your feet. As you can possibly tell I not over it yet. Thieving scum. |

I had a stereo stolen and a bit of the rubber glove was left in the dash got a DNA hit and crown prosecution threw out the case due to insufficient evidence. Get a job scum and work hard for the things you want, like the rest of us. |

Been through all that . The Police & insurance was a waste of time. It's no wonder we want to take the law into our own hands.

Got the bastards last night , waited up n seen the same gang going past at about 11.30pm , was too slow to get dressed n out , but later on at 1am saw 2 of the gang returning and managed to grab them till the cops arrived. Turned out they are french , over hear on placement / work experience at local charity shops believe it or not!!! I thought on fri they wer eastern europeans , but definately the same group / wearing same clothes n hats. Now in custody waiting for an interpriter to come down from north devon . They have been seen breaking into cars locally before aswell. |
