19th September 2006, 21:55
My wife and kids were home, I was at my Mum's. About 8.15pm they/he jimmied open one of the bedroom windows, then went thru the stuff in our bedroom. Took our most valuable watches, and rings, left credit cards and the spare keys to the gixxer!! Left before anyone noticed, which is probably just as well... least nobody hurt
Burglary squad won't be here for a couple of days....guess they're too busy catching speeding bikers...
Never had this happen before so we're a bit upset....

Had shorts on Maori tv , oh sorry Police Ten 7 tonight of cops charging a guy for chasing a crim out of his house with an axe!
Got to love the cops not doing their job in the first place and then charging the vigilantes!

I can imagine Leong, had the same thing happen here 3 years ago, had friends over, on the piss till 3.30am then went to bed, got up the next morning and wallet's/ cell phones/smokes/work bag with qoutes and diary in it...gone, they came into the house while we were asleep, that was the scariest thing, the first 0900 call was made on my phone at 4.10 am, and they continued calling....police didnt turn up till Monday as i recall, nothing could be done, they finger printed, so i feel for ya mate and your family, we know what it's like to have been intruded and it aint a good feeling for a while after.....Mark.

Bugger, that really sucks, it just shows that it isn't going to be taken seriously and a desirable conclusion is never going to manifest.

Words fail me, all I can think is how nice it would be to surprise bastards like that "with a discharging fucking shotgun", both bloody barrels!
Then say hold it right there I am calling the Police!.....for more ammo! :mad: John. (Hope your family are not too upset)

Never had this happen before so we're a bit upset....That's shocking Leong, I feel for you and your family. What a shame the police are too busy to come immediately, such horrible events can cause serious problems for the victims. I hope you have plenty of good people around you at this time.
What a wonderful world :no: . I sincerely hope the vermin who violated your home dig a pit for themselves and fall into it!

When someting like this happened to us a few years ago, the scene of crime officer told us to make visible changes to our security. Perhaps fit some window stays on the windows and patio bolts on ranchsliders.
Very scarey feeling for sure to know that someone has been in your home..
I hope the secure, safe feeling returns to your home very quickly.

soo what you are saying here is , that i should shut at least one door, when i go out?
oh that's right i don't live in the middle of a crime den....
see the poor litle buggers are going to get ANOTHER 10mil spent on them to "help" them out of the life of crime...
i wonder if locking up mum and dad when the kid does wrong also?

Neither do I....and I was home in bed asleep when we got broken into
Little ass "youths" with a drug habit to support was my best guess..
Absolute shits who caused us a huge amount of inconvenince, expense and upset..
For what it's worth the cops never caught anyone, gave us a form for insurance and filed the case away...

What a bunch of arsewipes who do that.
ALL KB MEMBERS:
Take the time TODAY to walk around YOUR house. Think like a burglar and decide HOW you would break into YOUR house. What is available in your garden/next to your house that will assist scumsuckers to break in (and get rid of whatever it is).
Make your place less tempting to break into!
Do you have an alarm?
Do you have a support network with neighbours?
Do it today!

Sounds like kids... taking the easy stuff only.
Burg squad doesn't catch speeders of any sort... they go to burgs... Duh...:spanking:
Yours is another on the "To do" list, which is big in those parts...along with all the others, one of the many...
Don't touch things that they may have touched so hopefully prints can be lifted.

Betcha there was no problem about chasing the guy from the house with an axe. Even if that was the whole story, even a failed legal aid lawyer would get him off...
Sorry about not doing the job in the first place, my crystal ball is stuffed, it didn't tell me this was happening when it did.

Could of used that example.

Whatever...
Good catch and well sorted FINN. No cops available at that time, were available at the time the woman complained I'm guessing...
I am also guessing she didn't tell the cops about her son tagging at the time of her complaint... if so, she would have been shown the door.
I would be disappointed if anything happens about the car. Verbal Warning at most, letter of appreciation even better....

Or you could just have two large dogs. Spend a lot of time training a medium sized dog, such as my border collie / black lab, then get a large schitzo white german shepherd who will sees the collie as alpha dog and follow whatever it does.
Ergo, team tag burglar system.

That sucks Leong.!!
Hope they catch the assholes!
There was someone snooping around our place at bout 3am the other night...
Dad saw a car parked at the end of next doors drive with lights on n someone scoping out our place, he installed a new security light yesterday n i've put a bike lock on the virago in the garage just in case n when put the zzr in there too ill lock her up as well. We have 2 big big dogs as well... so if they've got any sense they wont try anything.
I see your in Howick... Im in Pakuranga... maybe they are 'doing the area' so to speak??
People who steal should be :ar15: !!

That really sucks. I have been burgled once. Emptied my house except the fridge/oven and freezer when I was overseas. Turns out it was a friend of my brothers and he knew the place was empty. Got hold of the guy (who was about 16 or 17) and went to a "family confrence" or whatever they call it. It sat there very smug cause he knew he wasn't in any real trouble. My fist accidently connected with his head on the way out after the confrence and the officier had the ordacidy (sp?) to ask this kid if he wanted to lay charges. He looked at me and decided better of it and said he was ok and didn't want to take it any further. All my good stuff (electronics) were found stuffed under his parents house and were all buggered. insurance was just as brutle as they always are but I got over it.
As someone said earlier, Just as well your wife and kids were unaware. That would be a really big concern of mine. I don't mind coming up against some dumbarse who needs a short lesson in why they shouldn't be in my house but coming up against the little woman or worse, my kids would get my back up big time.

That's pretty worrying to know the scum was in your house while family members were home. Thankfully they were only after things they could turn into money, but I'd be fitting some locks to all my windows now.

Thanks Mom, we have some security measures, but it's always a compromise having security vs convenience. I like having the windows fullly open in summer, so we didn't do the security stays..... having them might have saved us the hassle last night...... we all slept fine last night so I guess we'll be OK

Unfortunately it's relatively common in our area.... don't think it'll be goin away and onto another area. Our neighbours have a security camera mounted out front because they always get tagged - we're hoping they got footage of the event!

Not that simple on the S.A.I.S protected gixxers. You can only match 4 keys to the ECU before you have to bin it and get a new one and being one down cos of a burg would mean that you better be fuckin careful with your keys.
I'm hopeless with keys so I shit myself whenever I "misplace" them.
I've got about 8 gixxer keys lying around though.

Geez - that's bad news... FOR THE INSURANCE COMPANY. If they don't do it they've just volunteered the bike to get stolen. I lost keys to our car once and (AMI?) replaced the locks gratus... no fee at all to me as policy holder. One of the few times I've actually been happy with an insurer.

Anyhoo, sorry to hear about your burg, makes me wild that that sort of shit happens all the time to guys who have WORKED to get what they have.
Why can't these tagging/drug taking slack-jawed *illiterate oxygen robbing layabouts get their shit together and do something positive with the life they have (Like get a job would be a good start) instead of screwing other peoples lives up as well as their own??

I live out in the sticks on a few acres and have a dog that resides, unchained on our property. She has the run of the place, has a nice cosy kennel by the front gate and is not prone to wandering off. She's a dumb black lab by day and great with the kids, becoming a rather effective anti theft device by night. I've seen her in action and wouldn't want to be on the recieving end either.

Aiyaa Leong, mao gao chor! Sucks to hear that happen - yeah, need to do the security checks again, the buggers might come back in a coupld of weeks once they know you've sorted the insurance and replaced your gears :( I was alerted one time by the neighbours about alarm going off at our place.
Turns out someone was trying to use some garden tools mum left lying around to try and jimmy their way in. :spudgrr:
Anyhows, hope your family isn't too shook up by this negative turn of events and can get on with their daily living. And don't feel stink about going to the track day - you can't let those bastards win by making you change your life. Sounds like you're doing all the right things in securing your house up.
I guess fluoro marking your possessions might help as an afterthought?

The Burglary Squad is a dedicated unit that is hardworking and will process your house as soon as they can get to it. Unfortunatley they are extremely busy esp out South Auckland. Pakuranga/Howick/Botany has one of the highest national burg rates.
Well if the rest of you useless cunts caught actually caught the crims instead of chasing "killers" at 111km/h they may get a bit of a respite.

Time for some vigilante patrols me thinks?? catch a few, rough them up then hand them over to the cops, or not. They might start thinking seriously about picking fights, especially if we ride bikes and wear heltmets. It is a bit hard to knock out someone wearing a decent helmet and that has body armour on, not to mention how much a hook with carbon fibre knuckles will hurt...
