Vehicle break in....Maplewood Sulphur Area

[SULPHITE]

Had my truck rummaged through last night. Also my neighbors. Luckily enough they didn't take anything of value. they were starting to work on my amplifier....i guess they got scared off.

Maplewood area near the pool/park. Officer also said that 10 or so vehicles hit around the East End Ave area. Lock your trucks/cars I'm too complacent I guess.

These are kids btw, which blows my mind...as to where are their parents to be letting them run around 1 am or so???...but I forget kids are just a hassle to raise nowadays...

Secondly, I thought to myself "Thank god i did not have my pistol in my truck!" I used to carry a .22 in my console. I surely did not want this in the hands of kids....so a warning to you who keep a gun in the truck...take it out every night or your arming a dumb *** kid.....

Well at least they didn't get anything. Last time my truck was broken into I found it 5 days later on enterprise blvd and they got my .45

yep, consider myself lucky. I'm willing to bet the turds who stole your truck started out like the ones that got into mine.

I wouldn't use deadly force, but I should would like to scare the **** out of them...let them know what can happen if they continue.

I'm posting this on behalf of a neighbor down the street from me. South Hazel and Ouida St. This happened just the other day.

Its a shame you now have to lock up your entire boat and trailer now. You can't blame it on neighborhood kids. It has to be someone who knows what they are doing.

Nimbus I live just on the other side of hazel I saw the sign as well. These thieves have been in the area for awhile now, they seem to be targeting easy prey items. As much as I hate it I now lock my trucks and shop, I have lived here for better then 10 years with no problems. I hate that this is where things are going but I bet we have only seen the start of the crime we are going to see. What to do? We must all pull together and be aware of the people around us, I know every vehicle in the neighborhood, and my retired neighbor knows every blade of grass. If someone turns around in my driveway he calls me. We are going to have to look out for each other cause no one else is! Sorry Flame Off!!!!

Don't worry Sulphur is building more section 8 as fast as they can. I'm sure that will make it all better.

Yup, looking out for each other is all you can do and lock your stuff up.

I have had things walk off over the years. Most recently a chainsaw, hunting bucket, and fishing rods stolen from my boat in my front yard. I even put "bait" in front of a hidden trail camera, but nothing bit. It chaps my *** that the police have such a blase attitude. With so many outsiders coming to this area for jobs, I'm sure theft will increase. Just also read that gangs from Houston have been sent to this area as well as others to case neighborhoods for items to steal.

They're not from Houston they're originally from nola. Remember when we had to open the astrodome "roach motel" for your people to survive since they have no positive direction in life an can't fend for themselves.
