Im sure its no great suprise to anyone but my car was broken into at Trigg point car park today.
They stole my old jeans , under pants, 1 sock, Mobile phone ($25 dollar pay as you go) and car ash tray ????
Luckily there was blood on the door were one of the culprits has cut him self after breaking the window.
Its a reminder to not leave anything valuable in the car.
I wonder when the police will invest as much surveilace technology in policing car park break ins as revenue generating speed cameras?
This is the third time this has happended to me in a year and a half !

i feel ur pain i have replaced my passager window twice ($100 a pop) now with nothing important stolen wat so ever..... funny thin is the new window was from the tip and is tinted unlike the rest of my car.
i swear if i ever catch a motherf@#@er in the act he is goin to get a work over unlike any cop would dish out.... im goin to smash his head through everyone of my car windows so he learns how to smash them propely next time

I also had to replace my window last week and i also have one tinted window but thinking of getting the tinting that holds the window together preventing access. I know that you can get it but I don't know if in OZ.

Maybe we should set a trap and f#ck the guy up bit.

Cheers Rich

So sad to hear this stuff always.

Weird, but Woodies has been quiet lately....touch Wood.

Among my breakfast reading material this morning was an article in the Joondalup paper about a rise in the number of car break-ins at cemeteries.

Apparently the lowlives have shifted their attention, at least a bit, from beach carparks to cemetery carparks

THEY STOLE YOUR UNDIES? WTF

I think it is useful to post on the forums to alert other waterusers of any trends.

Could I suggest writing to the council or at least calling them? Anyone who has been a victim of crime - feel free to make yourself heard - includes myself.

Would anyone from WAKSA be able to send an 'official' request for better carpark security since this affects us all? (Await reply)

PS You could also try not wearing
1. Jeans
2. Undies
3. Odd socks

plus not smoking or using a mobile... but I don't think that would be as practical or effective

What do people do when it's raining - still leave the window open?

not sure if posting it will help in any way but my buddy had his car broken into (i use this 'broken" term loosely as they found his keys under the car on the suspension) stole his camera from the glovebox and locked the car back up and put the keys back. let me know if someone organises a 'stoning', i've got a couple good rocks.

That is what you need.

Sorry to hear that mate. Happened to me six months ago. Feel your pain.

sad to add but my car was broken into the very next day 18th June 2009 around 5:15 pm... we went down to the beach for only 5 mins and I returned back to the car with my daughter (she was feeling cold) only to find the car passenger rear window was broken and my sisters bag and my bag was stolen.. the bags were not even left in view, it was under the seat.

I believe someone was watching and since we didn't carry any bags when we went down to the beach they broke in..

We went down the same place couple of days later just to do a surveillence and we saw a notice from a tourist " car broken in all their stuff was stolen"

dont the police get these reports everyday? why cant they do something to stop this rubbish...

I really hate hearing this. It seems almost every second day there is a car break in along the scarbs - trigg stretch. Its getting out of hand. My beloved Scabs is being over run by moron low lifes who prey on people pursuing there love of a sport, the ocean and a healthy lifestyle (i use the term healthy quite loosely btw ) The whole practice is just so damn unethical!!

Its not just all car break ins either, just plain d1ckheads spoiling the area for everyone else who want to enjoy the beach as it is, simply.

It pisses me off immensely and Im ****n over it!!

I really hope sometime soon one/some of the break in perpetrators are caught by one of us and they receive a good old fashioned vigilante lesson - the reality is this is what will stop them doing it again!

Having vented and calmed down a tad. I am also up for some law abiding means of prevention. Not exactly sure what these may be? - cctv cameras is a proven method (they do pay police to patrol at certain times in summer, perhaps some of this money could be used towards camera set-up?). There are also plenty of cctv's pointing towards the ocean.

I doubt the stirling city council will come to the party here...but perhaps a petition may be in order? Has this been done before in Stirling?...elsewhere? I think I remember there was one for Woodies?

If I get some support on this I would be happy to create a petition and post up on some of the pin-up boards in the local scarbs area shopping centres etc (will they let me post these up?). Let people know where they are. Give it a few weeks then present to the City of Stirling.

Im not sure how successful the petition would be, but for a small effort at least the council would know how pissed off the public are and raise the issue, even if it has been before. I imagine there would also be a wave of support from the surfing and windsurfing fraternities

Anyone have any other ideas? This issue needs action, not just talk.

Thanks Foosh!

ok, I'll wait to hear your feedback from the council contact and take things from there . I saw your post re WAKSA and its a good idea to get them involved (if they want to? Not sure...). Perhaps writing to them as well may help the cause?

Anyone not reported a break in?

I forgot to add in my last post: Please post it on Seabreeze as well as reporting it to the cops so we are all aware of break ins shortly after they occur.

Yeh I tried displaying my python too but got locked up for indecent exposure - can you believe it!? I'll be honest though.. it didn't quite reach over my shoulder.

Good onya Fooshy for taking it up with the council.. sounds like a typical "Yada yada yada - your onya own so get off my phone." response though.
