D McV Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 I know I haven't been around here in a long time but I thaught I would give you all a heads up. My buddy and I went to Queenston today parked in the upper lot then wlaked toword the power plants after about an hour and a half we decided to go try the dock area. When we came back to pass my car my back quarter window was busted out on the drivers side. I drive a 2 door car so if they were trying to steal out of my car I dont know why they would bust the small back window because you would need paris hilton to get through there. Nothing was stolen but there is evidence that other cars have had there windows popped in the past weeks, since there are piles of glass around the lot. There was a few piles of window glass on sunday and a couple of new ones this morning. Anyways I know this has happend in past times but I thought I would let all of you know that it is happening again so keep your eyes open for anyone lingering around. You may see more of me since I can hit the water again more often with this being my down time of the year. Thanks Again Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flywire Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 sounds like its time for people to start hiding out in the trees with a baseball bat.....or some form of paintball gun with the pressure cranked considering getting hit by one of them would stop anyone after a few shots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishfight Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 I am sorry to hear of your mishap, for it can happen to anyone these days, and whenever I park my vehicle in that area, I would not be surprise if one of our car is busted in as well. It is happening everywhere in Toronto and vicinity, few are being reported, but the police will not make this type of crime a priority these days, assuming our insurance will pay for it. My business was broken in two years ago and since we just moved into a new premises on a second floor, our insurance had laps and we were still searching for a new quote, but due to bad timing, we lost $xx,xxxx. valued at $xxx,xxx. To rob a second floor is not easy, but anything can happen. This is the second robbery in 5 years that happened to us. My Life has never been the same since then, and my perception of Toronto as a good place live is gone. I felt for you on this holiday season, but by you reminding us that no one is vulnerable, we can only pray and try our very best to prevent this from happening, especially avoid any visbile items on our vehicle. Should you report it to the local police just so they can keep track on the numerous crime happening in that area? Thanks for warning us once more!

scottydog Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 That sucks buddy. The bastards. Hope you called the police. I like Flywire's idea. Go get them Charlie. Good fishing. Scottydog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Andrews Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 OK I feel like deleting some posts so how about you guys tell us what you would do if you caught these low life losers in the act? Ooops no don't tell us there might be kids here! I know what I would do. I wonder what windsheild glass tastes like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlieD Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 after a day of fishing on the river today I went up to the upper lot to go to the bathroom and seen your car window busted. This really pisses me off, I did not see anyone around, and if I did oh man I don't know what I would have done cause I am still waiting to catch this guy cause my car was busted into up there in Nov /04 and had $3000 worth of stuff stolen. I feel your frustration man and just be thankful they weren't smart enough to bust the front. If someone on here catches this person teach him a lesson he will never forget. Thank you!

Guest fishstick Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 I'll guarantee you that it's someone who either lurks this site, or a little bastard that lives in the area. Forget about a setup....they'd be wise to it and it'll never take shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cplummer Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 A few of us talked about hiding and catching them last year and actually did one day but no-show... may be time to try again...my camera has a 12x zoom so i don't need to be close and let the cops deal with it.. LOL cliff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D McV Posted December 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 Thanks guy's I wish we did catch them but it might be a good thing that we didn't with the ways the laws are and a cliff being so close. No we didn't call the police because it would'nt have made a differance. Because it isn't priority anymore to report vandalisim,even though a new window would have cost me 330 to$430 and my deductable for vandalism is $500 luckily I found a deal. One day they will get there own, I just hope who ever gives it to them dosn't get in trouble. ChrlieD you may not have seen my car but maybe another? I left around noon and there were 2 trucks left of the 3 when I got there and one which had just arrived. The 2 trucks that had been there were fine (no tinted windows) so I'm guessing they probably saw there was nothing to steal. By the way my buddy caught a nice male bow about 8 to 10 lbs.

charlieD Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 I left at about 11:40....you had the red car right. Thats a nice big bow for those fast waters you were in, must have been one good fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bubba14 Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 No matter what happened, where it happened, or if anything was stolen, it is always best to report it to the police. If you don't, they will have no idea what is going on and won't step up patrols in that area. I just happen to have an 'in' with the police and will pass the word along.

pauly Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 Try using a baby monitor with batteries. It will pick up any activity while you're down below fishing. I use it in my boat when I have to stay overnight in a hotel. Just a thought. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
