They tried to break in to the shop last night.....

[indiucky]

Cut the power, came through roof and ceiling of the business next door...They then tried to kick their way through the firewall separating our shops....They never got in to mine...I figure they ran out of dark or got scared....

Police left a couple of hours ago...processed the scene and Duke just got me up an running...MammyNun's down here helping me with a few things now...


I'm livid....

 

[woowoo2]

Sorry to hear that they even tried.
Figure they migrated in from down south?

 

[Colt556]

Bummer. They’re like rats, they’ll keep gnawing away until they find a way in. Sonsabitches!

 

[The Bubba Effect]

Trash. Glad you just got a heads up instead of something worse.

 

[Hkindiana]

when I gad a store, I set trip wires every night wish CS dispensers. I figured if they ever got in, they sure wouldn’t stay long.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Dang Rick, that sucks, but glad they weren't able to get in to your shop!

It will be someone that has passed through your threshold or they have been informed by that person.

I hate a thief. No words I can use here to describe my true feelings towards these parasites.

Kentucky trash no doubt. That’s why I left the range.

Exactly, city trash. We need to blow the ****ing bridges. Too much of that garbage is probing north to see what they can get their filthy hands on.

Saw some stills of a couple of "gentlemen" that tried to steal some copper wire from a sub-station one time. Shame your story didn't have similar results.

 

[Brad69]

Do “they” know you are a throughly dangerous man?

 

[wcd]

Just curious where is your shop? Glad to see that there was only property damage.

 

[dekeshooter]

Too bad they didn't weren't better grounded when they cut the power. They could have turned their potential into something positive.

Seriously, I'm happy to hear they did not get in.

 

[Expat]

Sorry to hear. That would be highly irritating.

The people in some gun shops have completely changed in the last few years.

 

[Jaybird1980]

Sorry to hear this, I hope they got some evidence collected, maybe some cameras would be worth the investment.

There have been alerts through the jewelry store networks via DMP, one of the alarm manufacturers I work with. here is what they are recommending because what you saw is exactly what they are doing to them. cutting power and phone is the first step to disable the alarm system. (except the alarm panels have a battery so it still works. And the cellular backup will still phone home even if they cut the phone lines.

Setup central station alarm alerts for power outages, set to dispatch PD for an outage. Most agencies dont mind, and if they are rolling to your location will see the neighborhood is dark and do a simple drive by while they are there. No hits/fines for a false alarm because they realized what was up and didnt expend any serious manpower on the run. They are understanding this is a new-ish tactic.


And if you dont have a centrally monitored alarm, PM me. I know a company. What they did will not stop a properly installed alarm from calling home.

Not saying criminals are smart, but why didn’t they just come through the ceiling of your shop? Glad all is OK. Seems like the flight from demo places is affecting many places. Getting some dirt from a friend putting in a pool a few weeks ago about 8 am in the middle of nowhere near DeMotte and I ran into a meth bust! Got to talk to and give one of the officers a good compliment when they were leaving.
