Car Breaking / Legal Advice
 

Well guys, I come to you to get some good advice. What happened is that on Thanksgiving day my car got broken into and lets just say its pretty messed up.

Damages are: $1500. audio system stolen, $100. worth of CD's stolen, my passanger side window smashed, my passanger side seat was forced forward, the back seats (since they fold down) were both forced down - now there loose, and of course my passanger side door tint is gone, scratches all over the car and weather stripping top and bottom destroyed.

The problem is this; When I called the cops down to report this they refused to come down and had some secretary call me back and ask what happened! So, I called back later and demanded an answer as to why the police didn't come down like as they are supposed to since you know that's there job and all. The answer given was "oh well, it wasn't my shift so what do you want me to do about it".

The point is that I want to sue the city/police Department for the book value of my car - or for damages.

Do you think that's a wise decision?
BTW - My neighbor's system was stolen the same day. I just don't want this going to where the people who took my system and the police get away with it.

That is a bunch of cr@p. I'd be just as pissed too. Tell those cops to get off there ***. I don't know what you would do in that kind of situation but some justice should be given to you. Try calling your insurance company and get them to give you some suggestions. Try to contact a laywer and see if you would have a case and go from there.

Good Luck,

Dude that sucks. I'm sorry to hear about that. I can't imagine how pissed I'd be if someone did that **** to my car. I have a crappy little '86 nissan pickup and someone wrote on the windows with some of that "Glass Chalk" stuff and I was irate. That pissed me off extremely bad.

Go buy a fake play gun (if it has the orange tip paint it black, hehe). Find the guy....or girl I suppose...and just scare the living piss outta them. Then punch them...in the teeth.
