Subject: my car was stolen today at 10:37am
i went to my parking spot in the structure after class today (around 3:30) and my car wasn't there. i called the wsu police and filed a car theft report with the cop they sent. he, heather, and i went to the parking security office and got permission to watch the video surveillance, and i saw my car being driven out at 10:37am, approximately one hour after i parked it.

it was a sneaky job -- there was no one caught on tape walking up to my car or anything. but, a shady-looking van paulled into a spot near my car about 5 minutes before it was stolen, and then my car was driven off, and then shortly after, someone came and took off in the van.

so, we think what happened is that the thief probably staked out my car and knew i parked in the same general area every day, pulled in, walked in front of the noses of the cars so that he wouldn't get caught on the cameras, stole my car and took it somewhere, then came to get his van.

using the freeze-frame, we weren't able to get a good shot of the driver in my car -- it was way too blurry. you would think with the tuition we pay, the structures would be equipped with like HD quality cameras in case of a mugging, rape, or car theft... but apparantly not. we were able to get the license plate of the van, though.

anyway, it sucks. i liked my car a lot, and it's a big inconvenience. on the bright side, i wasn't injured and nothing of great value was in my car when it was stolen.

please think positive thoughts for me (e.g. that my car is in-tact and they find it soon!).

thanks.

holy shit, that's crazy! i'm glad you're okay at least...who the hell has their car stolen? what a pain in the ass, i'm so sorry.

oh wait, the secret...so i should be thinking about the police recovering your car, and not thinking about beating up the jerks who screw up people's lives, right? that's a toughie.

Marcel: Well, at least it wasn't a brand new car.

Mary: Yeah but it meant something to him, Marcel!
