Another criminal goes free

[garyn13]

So tonight I came home from hunting hogs at the lease. I arrived home at around 9:30 then went to the kennels to water my coondogs after i finished watering the dogs i walked inside to talk to the wife so i decided to help the wife finish up with dinner before i put up all of my hunting stuff, we sat down to eat around 10:30. While we were enjoying our dinner We heard somthing crank up and haul arse. I immediately jumped up and ran to the window with my light and shined outside towards our truck and noticed that our polaris rzr had been stolen. I was still in my hunting clothes so I grabbed my pistol and keys and took off towards the way that the rzr went. So I called 911 to get the police headed toward the house. I was driving around for 12 minutes when my wife called saying that there was a truck parked 100 yards from the house and there was a guy walking down the road toward the truck. So I hurried up to get to my wife she jumped in and we went to confront the guy walking. As we pulled up beside him I asked him what he was doing and he replied his truck had broke down and he was trying to get to a phone to call someone for help. I replied asking him why he didn't walk to our house instead of walking 11/2 miles the opposite direction to use a phone. His reply was he wasn't from around here at that time my phone was ringing it's the cops they where on our road so I drove down 100 yards to turnaround and talked to the cops. So the cops pulled up and question this guy and then let him go. The funny thing is that I went the way he was walking from (twice)and I never seen him. Also his truck was 20 yards off the road and backed into a lease road. After the cops let him go they came to get a statement from me that's when the other officer said I found the rzr. From the time I heard the rzr crank until I confronted him was about 18 min. So I walked from where the rzr was to where I confronted him it was 16 min leaving no doubt it was him.

While we where lucky to get our Rzr back I wish they would have put the guy behind bars. My wife is now freaking out because this guy came all the way up to the house while we where eating and stole something.

Sorry for the rant

I bet the ID'd him when they talked to him. Hopefully the investigation is not over now that it's been recovered. Glad you got it back.

This. Why didn't the cuff and stuff him?

[Efren]

Wow! At least you got your stuff back.

Dang, to bad you didnt ask for his keys so you could help him try and start his truck. If it would have started you would have knowen he was lying. And you would have had his keys. They should be able to get prints from rzr sterring wheel. Hope fully they got his name and plate # when they questioned him. But glad you got it back.

Glad you got your rzr back. Time to get some cameras or at least a cheap driveway alarm.

[marshman]

Dang man, just read this. Glad you got it back, but it shows how brazen some people are. I bet he was lurking around and watching you waiting for you to go inside.

Dirtbags. They never cease to amaze me.

[Stuck]

They let him go, how did he leave if his truck broke down? If he was gone when the rzr was found I would have a camera hidden there, he may be dumb enough to come back for it if he had it hidden.

Never mind. I see this is couple weeks old.
