[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 573127, member: 1233"] We do know, 100%, that it was NOT my brother. He does have a red car, but he was somewhere else and it has been verified. My dad listens to the police radio (lifelong habit, annoys the koi out of my mother, always has) and there have been more than a few instances of some man in a red car trying to break into places. It has been on the police radio quite a bit the last few weeks. I spoke with the police. They will come out and give us a paper to fill out, but they will not TAKE the paper, nor will they make any kind of report. Without the make, model and FULL license plate, they will not even attempt to run a plate. They claim that it isn't possible to run partial plates. I don't believe it, because I know a few cops, but they still tell people that story because it saves them time/effort/work. They mean well, but mostly they just are busy and if no one was hurt and nothing was taken, they can't really do much. I actually feel better knowing it isn't gfgbro. A stranger? Random, likely won't be back. Mgmt for our proterty is aware and will be on the lookout. J did not call 911 because she figured by the time they got here the guy would be gone and then it would be another 'she wants attention' thing, just like BOTH car accidents were written off as. The first accident has permanently damaged her knee, but apparently according to the cops it should have broken her legs. Well, research shows if a car is only gone very slowly, braking or bakcing up, it doesn't do that. They also said, both times, that if she was truly hit, she would be dirty and she wasn't. No, when the ambulance got htere she wasn't filthy. Each time there was a stack of at least 15 used baby wipes that I used to clean her up and see what was going on under the dirt. Plus we had a lot of burrs in the yard and they were hurting her, so it got them off her clothes and out of her hair. J has little faith that they would do anything if seh called. husband mentioned this on fb to Wiz. He said something to my dad. Gpa says she is to call HIM (he lives two blocks away) and the neighborhood vigilantes will 'deal' with the issues. She feels better about that. Dad also told husband that he and my mother have told gfgbro to NOT drop gifts off for us. My dad told gfgbro that if he wanted to come over to our house, to go to his and he would call to make sure we were home. Meaning my dad would call and say,"Oh, you are out shopping. Okay.
