Sorry if the strong language offends people but i was REALY very unhappy. Im still sitting waiting for the fingerprint people. AANNNNNDDDDD.. the bastard had the odasity/stupidity to leave a can of coke (3/4 full) on my kitchen table.

Glad you're safe. Shtty clean up job tho.

 

[BCO]

At least one of them got caught. Let's hope he actually does some jail time.

o **** thats hectic...whats most important is that no one was injured...did they manage to steal anything in the end? lucky you stil got your pc!

 

[|tera|]

That's too bad koosbeer, dude did someone tell you your house is a mess? hehehe At least you're safe, thank the big guy

 

[Goobie]

WOW! so how did they get into the house? through those burglar bars visible in one of the photos?

 

[koosbeer]

Yeah, i am very gratefull and as far as i can see (havent cleaned, waiting for finger print dude) there is nothing gone! Luckily i hamy laptop with me. All in all R40k worth of stuff would have been taken!

@Goobie: yeah, through the window

 

[Wisemansa]

did they break the burglar bars?

 

[koosbeer]

@hansa: no, they simply opened the window and climbed in and gathere upall my stuff. The wife forgot to completely close the window so they took the chance!

 

[Goobie]

@hansa: no, they simply opened the window and climbed in

Now I'm worried, I have similar bars in all the windows, hoping that nobody can get in through them.

So they sqeezed through the gaps in those burglar bars?

Man, where they really planning on carrying that HEAVY Antec case of yours?

 

[Random717]

out of interest, any ideas what their getaway plan was? any strange vehicles parked outside your place?

 

[koosbeer]

@xcleric: i arived home with the cycle and saw no cars in the road at all, so i really dont know.

@supersunbird: lol, the case is BIG ASS HEAVY, but the TV weighs like 10 times more. Were they planning on putting it through the window?

 

[Wisemansa]

lol they were planning on running away with a pc , tv, clothes, bags etc hehe........and a can of coke ........

 

[koosbeer]

hAnsa: they actually brought their own coke and left it in the house. There is never cans of coke in the house so the dumb bastard brought a coke along and then left it here when they had to leave so fast!

 

[supersunbird]

They are probably come back again sometime, they now "know" the place. Better burglar proofing inside, solid steel pole type thing, properly secured with rawlbolts. Maybe a alarm...

 

[Wisemansa]

theyll come back to fetch their coke

 

[Peppercorns]

Shame bro, i honestly feel sorry for you, at least no damage was done.

I hate being in those situations, it feels like your heart just drops when you see whats happening. I had 2 black guys mugg me and my sister on the beach at night a while ago, luckily i had no valuables on me and all they took were my takkies
But they did hold a knife to my stomache and one to my sisters throat which isn't cool at all

My best guess is if they are armed, co-opperate to be safe

 

[Skeptik]

Sorry you were burgled. The worst part is not knowing exactly what they took. I see you have a high wall. Seems not to be a deterent to these people and hides the property from the road. Burglar bars should cater for the smallest person, children even. These township folk can be quite skinny

They usually will look for keys or "tools" to open a door from the inside, and then carry everything outside. A few years back they did the same to us. Send a kid(s) through the window, who then packed everything neatly, ready for removal. Unlucky for them we learned to lock all our keys in the safe, so they had no way of getting out. They ran away when we got home in the afternoon.
