Wheel Thief Video - Sacramento

So my paranoia paid off with having 2 cameras on my car at all time in my apartment building garage! So at 6:00pm on Sunday, yeah SUNDAY, this douche goes around all 5 of the buldings looking at wheels to steal. He managed to hit the only car where cameras are at! As you can see in the video, he looks at both my car and the Jeep and I have wheel locks on mine, so he comes back 30 min later to hit the Jeep.

It took him half an hour in a community parking garage to get away with the wheels and not only that, but at the end, the jeep fell off the jackstand and crashed to the ground!

So if you're in the Sacramento area, be aware of him. He looks to be around 6' tall and carried a dark blue satchel that has his equipment in it and he has long hair that he wears a ponytail with or tucks it into his hat.

The Jeep is my neighbors car but i wanted to post here because if i didnt have wheel locks, im positive he would have gone for mine.

Enjoy and keep a look out if your in the Sacramento area!

Im using Lorex and Swann cameras hooked up to my computer 24/7 with motion detection to start recording. The program I use is Lorex and allows for remote viewing of the cameras, but im too dumb to figure out how to set it up as a server to view from the internet.

I use the lorex too. Call customer care to setup the server, they are pretty helpful.

Ouch too bad he got away, thing is if you hook it up to an alarm you'll get so many false ones.. Glad your GT30s are safe and sorry about your neighbours

Yeah they are ok, but because they are on all the time, they tend to burn out easily. I recommend getting Lorex because it has a better night vision. As you can see in the video, one looks black and white while the other angle has more color... well the Lorex is better.

I haven't, but I gave my neighbor the video as well as the apartment management.
