Celica Hate (Update 10/26/08), Smashed my window (now with pictures) Options

[MaskedMan]

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.

damn that sucks. i too am normally a chill guy but i think i'd be pissed by now. i say file the report. cuz its no longer a random act of vandalism. someone obviously doesn't like you and/or your cars. and like i said... its a sign you should move back to so cal.

I want to stake out on Halloween night, but I have to work the morning after haha. I really think that Halloween night is a big risk for my cars to be attacked. I will file that police report too. I've seen a large amount of cops in my area lately though! I saw 3 people pulled over on my way home today. Quota time is scurry :x.

It's just giving me more insight on if I really want to live here or not. And I don't mind living here, it's just that I don't really enjoy it. It's not worth it for me to have to fight just to live in this house. I have began looking at houses on the East Coast, and apartments in SoCal (they are about the same price haha). I just need to tough it out for a few more months. I would really like to finish school up here so that I can be done with school haha. It's just 1 more little semester and I'm all done! So I will just have to do as much as I can to make ends meet and protect myself and my property until I can move on.
