Police were called to this incident and the responding officers were very nice to the car owner, inviting him into the squad car to keep warm while they filled out the police report. The NYPD’s Crime Scene Unit was called and they ‘dusted’ the car in attempts to recover the fingerprints of the perp or perps, which didn’t yield anything leading the police to believe that the perp uses gloves.

    it happened also to another car, across the street from that one. But the air bags were not taken in the second incident.

    I don’t know if anything else was stolen, the same back window was broken, but both airbags were there.

    I think it was a beige Honda.

  • chrup!

    we should set up a honda or two as “bait” and stake it out and when the perp comes to jack it,we jack him!
