What happens when you leave your keys, wallet and tools in your car,
while at work. It might just be a Yaris. But it deserves better this this.
This happened to my friend last week in Moncton, NB.

I'm missing the story here. I've probably left keys wallet and tools in my car before but I don't think this wasn't the end result...

Car was stolen, joy ride, ending with the car getting trashed? I'm surprised it wasn't set on fire after all of the rest.
keys left in car, so someone steals the car, drives it like they stole it, including rolling it over (hence all of the damage and mud/grass). Maybe filled with garbage after and then abandoned.

And a lot of needles too. My friend (the owner) is very upset with himself, oh and no insurance either.
Not how I would do it. But what can you do, it's done. |

I can only imagine that folks up there must feel super secure. I actually feel super secure, I am not worried or concerned about anyone coming on my property and messing with my stuff. I don't lock my car (on my property), but I also don't leave the keys in it. Anytime my car is anywhere other than on our property, the doors get locked. I do lock the doors to the house, although I think that's unnecessary, and mostly for my wife's sake. There are crazy, low-life folks everywhere. I think there are drugs that make people do stupid stuff everywhere, especially in the middle of no where.

Did he get his keys, wallet, or tools back?
Car- check.

Nearest city is anchorage. Maybe three hours away. Couple times a year a car full of addicts will drive down and loot cabins. Sometimes they’re caught and savagely beaten. Sometimes not.
Sucks balls that even in bum**** nowhere we have to lock our doors now. |
