Last Thursday was oh so much fun! I went home after work to change, and park my cars into my new carport. Well, not more then five minutes after arriving, my door bell rings, and three of my gearhead friends from down the street inform me of some really bad news that my cars were banged up pretty good. I had my Blazer and Suburban in the vacant lot next to my car port and my Vette in the driveway. Some really problematic kids from down the street decided that it would be fun to throw rocks at the trucks...a lot of them. Every window was shattered in the Blazer with bricks, rocks, and broken glass all over the interior. What a horrible mess. They were caught by my neighbors before they destroyed the Suburban but the glass on the barn doors is gone, and there are several dents on both vehicles. The Vette had one rock on the hood, but it doesn't appear to be damaged. The oldest was eleven, and the other two were seven and six. I can't believe that they would do this. I was talking to the contractor who is building the houses in the lots next to me, and the windows were broke out of a new house several months ago with these kids spotted in the backyard. What a mess. Anyhow, I am lucky that my neighbors were watching, the police came, I had witness, and the eleven year old is in big trouble. The parents said they were going to pay for the glass, but I haven't heard back from them. I may need to wait for the judge to order restitution...big sigh!!!!!

Sorry to hear that. How could a parent not know where their 6 and 7 year old kids are every single minute of the day?

Sorry to hear about the damage. I did stupid things as a kid but once I got caught and my parents heard about it, I was in a lot of trouble. My parents came up for the damages.
What I hate is parents that say oh my little boy wouldn't do something like that. You must have been provoking him.
Some people don't care at all. After all it wasn't their property. But if you did the same thing to their cars they would have you arrested.97 Trans Am A4 more or less stock (Mods: WS6 Ram Air with Fernco & K&N, 12 disc CD changer, power antenna, SLP Fan Switch, LS1 Aluminum DS, Borla Cat back, McCord power plate, Spohn tower brace, Sirius, HID fog lights)
