Transfer to campus safety?

So I go out for my midnight run tonight. On the way back I’m about 90% sure I caught some kids trying to break into cars in the parking lot. There were a couple cars with the lights on inside like what happens when you try the handle. They were huddled around one and when they saw me they both ran into the dumpster enclosure. So I walk over to the dumpster and ask if they need some help. They come up with a lame story that one of them had to pee. So I walked around the parking lot for a bit stretching my legs out while they ran from the dumpster to a house and then behind a bush waiting for me to leave. So I sat down in my yard to stretch. They watched me for about 4min. I yelled out I was gonna call the cops so they ran off over by Fairlane. So then I walked in and talked to “Bill” from campus safety and told him what was up. He got all excited cause he thought they were in the middle of doing it, then got all dejected when I told him I scared them away. Poor campus safety. So he said they’d do some “extra patrolling”. Probably the highlight of his evening.

    dude, Steve Elwood just got his car broken into two nights ago - they jacked up his whole console to steal his crappy cd player. he’s mad… yay you for scaring them off!

    on a happier note about Steve Elwood, he’s invited you (because I like you - not in a stalker way - and because you’re neighbors) to pop on over for dinner on the 3rd. we’re having a cookout. I’m going to bring you the deep fryer then, and you’re invited for burgers or dogs or whatever it is we have to eat. interested?

    Hey Chalupa, do you have any idea what those kids looked like? I’d really like to get my CD player back, and if they were trying to break into cars, it follows that they probably were the ones who stole my stereo. I’d really like to recover the $350 worth of damage and equipment they did/stole. Thanks!

    Feel free to email me at steveelwood AT gmail DOT com or come over if you want. We’re in Briarwood 1D.

    Thanks for the invite this weekend. I don’t know exactly what I’m doing yet, but I’ll keep that in mind.

    Squatz said I should have taken a shotgun outside to intimidate the kiddies. That’s probably going a bit too far, but if I see them again I’m not above getting a bat or golf club.

    Dude, you totally should have gotten the shotgun out. :) I think the funniest part was when campus safety came over and parked their car in front of our apartment, along with the Upland cops…I guess they wanted to tag team on this one.
