Haven't been on here much lately, but I thought I'd post an update.
About an hour ago, somebody or most likely a group of people threw a large rock (bout the size of a basketball) into the rear hatch glass of a Hatchback Celica which I'm building for my sister. The rear glass is completely shattered but luckily none of the parts inside were stolen. The rock landed on top of an ST205 front bumper core support and smashed a 96+ front bumper I had in the hatch. It's too heavy to lift the rock out with all the glass in the way right now. Already filed a police report. My convertible Celica had a smaller rock next to it (about the size of a softball). The rock appeared to had been thrown at the window in attempt to break it, but they did not succeed. The window is chipped up, but not cracked. The Convertible top is barely damaged, the rock seemed to have just knicked it a bit. The Celicas were parked out on the street in front of my house both right next to each other. The main question that was brought up by the officer was if I had any enemies up here. I don't believe I have any enemies up here. I actually don't believe I have many enemies at all. The rocks that were thrown at my car were not from around the house. They were rocks that seemed to be part of a sidewalk curb or construction. I drive responsibly everywhere I go, I don't speed or drive recklessly. All I do up here is go to work and come home. I don't hang out with certain people or dress any certain way where people would relate me with other people. I'm kind of having a hard time understanding why my cars were targeted. I live at a dead end street on the top of a hill. Whoever had done this must have known where my cars where at and even bothered to carry rocks from another location just to throw at and into my cars. I always thought in a situation like this, I would feel depressed, or full of revenge. But I'm really not either of those. I actually feel somewhat fortunate that my cars are still here and not stolen, and nothing inside was stolen. None of the exspensive parts were damaged much. There's really nothing I could have done to avoid this either, so I'm not really beating myself up taking blame for anything. All I can do is get the glass repaired and move on with my life. I can take pictures of the damage tomorrow when the sun is out. This post has been edited by MaskedMan: Oct 26, 2008 - 7:46 PM -------------------- |

being 18 this is pretty easy to figure out. Teenagers were def driving around with that rock in the back of a truck just looking for sh!t to smash. That picture of your two celicas modded right next to eachother just screams out that you love them. As hard as it sounds teenagers look to destroy that loved stuff all the time. When me and my boys ride around town we always hate on the group of identical civics with fart cans that love there civics to death do them part. I dont think this much different besides the fact that they had that rock and were intending on facking someones shiz up.
Def not racial, no spray paint, not enough damage, not pre-meditated. If i was you i WOULD NOT make any indication that you were effected by the vandalism, if you put up a big fancy surveillance system with lights and cameras, whoever did this is going to see they accomplished their goal to hurt you and see the cameras and lights as a challenge for round 2. Brush your shoulders off and move on playa ![]() |
