Washing Machine Bandits
Hi everyone. I now have a beef of my own. I live in a security locked building, supposedly, and in the last 3 months, our building has been "hit" 4 times. The latest night being Christmas night! Since i work nights, I was awake at 2:30, and was watching a movie. I heard noises out in the hallway, and thought it was my neighbor across the hall, so I peeked out the peephole and was going to ask him to keep in down since my daughter was so sick. There was on one across the hall, but the noises got louder and louder. So, I called the police, who showed up quite a bit later. Come to find out, he got in the back door, which is right by my window, and went out the front. We recently had a lock put on our laundry room door, and the noises i heard were him trying to pry it open. Needless to say i didn't get anymore sleep. I was told, that he had hit Fort Howe apartments hard, and when the repair man was there..he tried yet again! but the repair man scared him off. The police had mentioned that if i had stuck my head out my doorway i most likely would have scared him off...hehehehe...nope..i'm a scardy cat...MEOW! They say that he is just a punk looking for the change from the machines..but what i ask is why is he looking for it. Anyone who is that desparate for money?...how long will it be before he switches to apartments. I don't feel safe anymore. Not at all..Maybe i'll get a place with washer dryer hook-up, since he's only targeting laundry rooms.
