Sorry to hear about this Rod. Its pretty crazy everywhere. Lucklily we haven't had a any break-ins or stealing of cars (knock on wood), other than some car stereo stuff out of the garage when it was left open all night - but we are pretty sure that was just some of my step-sons friends of friends sort of thing. The worst part is the door was unlocked but thankfully noone tried to come in!
We have had a few shady looking cars drive around the sub, and pretty much just "park" at the end of the street that we've called the police on before. It doesn't happen anymore now..that we know of. But they have beefed up patrols. Heck just the other day we had a guy show up dead in a pond (in a sub) less than a mile away!
Lol, I just remembered when I got my new car a couple years back, I had people following me into my sub. I know they were following me because they weren't the type of vans of people that lived in the sub, more the type you might find in a not so nice area...and it happened on multiple occasions. Luckily I had the presence of mind NOT to go home and ended up winding through to some other subs, only to have to book it onto a main road in traffic to get away from these people. I dunno if they just wanted the gps radio thingy, or wanted to carjack me or what but still pretty scary.
And we live about an hour outside of the big "city"...
