Here's the small gift of watching a satisfying arrest this Christmas Eve. Merry Christmas! [video=youtube;7X-uFMvIWDQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7X-uFMvIWDQ[/video] Video originally from Liveleak: [URL]http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=d6e_1387810015[/URL] [quote]These guys showed up and took about $15k worth of scrap metal last year, so in the summer we installed some additional surveillance cameras out back. I guess it's that time of year again, as they started showing up again, so I started monitoring the cameras from home. Friday night (Dec 20, 2013), they show up so I call the local police. [U][B]Cops show up about 5:10[/B][/U] Edit: A lot of users think they're just raiding the trash. This is a bin we store scrap metal in, and a recycling company picks it up and pays us per pound for the metal. These guys instead come and steal it, then sell it to generally less-reputable recycling companies. The area they're stealing from is through our parking lot and behind the building, near our truck wells. It's very much on our private property.[/quote]
Haha, Christmas in jail. What a bunch of jerks. [editline]25th December 2013[/editline] I hope they have to pay back the full $15k + expenses for wasting the time of the people they stole from and the cost of those cameras.
