A while ago with the old urvan, they cut one of the rubbers out of one of the back windows and nicked a nearly brand new dewalt cordless drill.

Heard on the local radio that a ambulance had it's sat nav stolen while the guys were on a call, beggers belief:incazzato:

Complete B'stewards - sorry Dave if you have to remove that but it is true. Freind of mine had his van nicked in the summer. Never to be seen again. Amost put him out of business. When I had my car broken into and was lucky to lose just the tom tom the hassle just that caused me was unbeleivable. I can't imagine the greif you must get if they nock the tools of your trade. Trouble is on the rare occasions these people get caught the courts don't give a punishment to fit the crime. They should be birched or put in the stocks in my opinion.

not that I feel very strongly about it of course...........grrrrrrr!!!!!:incazzato::incazzato:

My dad and two other lads were doing an Asda job down in the midlands somewhere in October this year and when they arrived on the job had to go in for an H&S Induction video, etc. When they got back to the van 20mins later fond that some tw*t had pulled up alongside the side loading door of his Vito in another van and emptied the whole of the van into his - I mean everything - change of clothes for all the lads, packed lunch, tools, satnav,etc, etc....:incazzato:

Know a heating engineer who was parked outside his house and did'nt lock it and in 5 minutes he had a load of power tools stolen.

His neighbour got the reg number of the ford focus and it registered at a travelers camp, the police did'nt bother about it.

 

[Time's Ran Out]

Yes - we were working on a Victorian vestibule(entrance) and the van was parked in the drive 10feet away(behind us).
Sometime in the afternoon we looked back and someone just ran away from the van.
My son chased after him while I phoned the police but he was away!
He must have been on his 3rd/4th visit as our Rubi mixer/paddle was gone + coat etc.
About a month later we were asked to an identity computor parade of photos which we couldn't confirm and apparently they had some lads in for other thefts.
PC said as we left - 'not to worry we'll fit him up for something' !!!!

I have seen a transit van where the bankers had opened the side panel with tin snips, nicked his radio, thing was the back doors were unlocked! The damage to the van cost loads of money because it was sign written.
