[This is at the same chain I have been ranting about]
Man buying booze at Bartlett grocery store punched and kicked bagger who has special needs
...
Prosecutors said Mirabella went to the store about 9:45 p.m. to purchase alcohol, and while standing in the checkout line, he punched the bagger. Mirabella then kicked the employee in the back before leaving the store. Police took him into custody a short time later at his residence, prosecutors said.
Authorities did not provide any potential motive for the alleged battery....

I have to go out for a quick trip
brb
That was weird. On my way to the store I noticed my neighbor's garage door was open, the little walk in one. I went into the garage and her car is still there along with all of their junk.
I tried her doorbell, no answer. Just found her number online and called, she answered and has no idea why the door would be wide open.
I told her I investigated and there's no one hiding in there with a bat. I hope that's still true as I went to the store etc in the meantime
Or did you open the door and CLAIM you found it that way?
The door was already open when I arrived on scene.
Years back some young fucks broke into the garage two houses away, then the neighbor's garage I'm talking about and then they tried to kick in our garage door.
Two houses away they stole a bunch of old tools that were useless, next door they only have junk in their garage so nothing was taken and they only managed to damage the frame of our walk in door by attempting to kick it or hit it with something.
It was a week night and a pretty brave thing to attempt...bashing in three garage doors in a row. I spoke to the cops handling the case the next morning before going to work and they said good luck in catching up with criminals. That was about five years ago and we haven't heard anything yet.
But yeah...I'm so concerned that someone broke in next door where two defenseless older sisters live alone, that I went right on down to Superstore to get my 2.97 Casa di Mama pizzas on sale
One thing I like about the new Ring video doorbell we got is that on the app it lets you share videos and post about shady things in the neighboring area(s). Plus you get a weekly police report of crimes in the area as well. Seems like from the postings on the app, there's people going around and breaking into cars around here. They're looking for idiots that don't lock their vehicles, but there's been a few that have had windows smashed out in them. No doubt some dumbass leaving something valuable looking out in plain sight. But still.

There's a good story where a quiet black guy moves into a fairly affluent neighborhood and the neighbors think he's strange and don't interact with him. They notice he put up multiple old school security cameras on his house and garage.
One day down the street a little girl gets abducted. Parents are heartbroken as it happened midday and no witnesses. Cops either asked or the black guy offered, and they used his security footage to discover the girl was thrown into a vehicle. They got the vehicle description and plate number. The girl was found within hours and returned unharmed.
That's why those things rock

Yup, with as bad as crime is getting, things like this are definitely worth it.
Customer showed up for a dog and pony show, so if I go dark, they've decided to come and use my office.
