It is on lake rhodes rd & 188th.it is in a clear cut area, I ran into a few dirt bike riders, they said there is about 100 other toyotas deeper in the woods! the sheriff was there last weekend chasing someone,beleived to be the theif!! dont know if they caught him! It took me all day to walk my parts bolts skid plate battery ect ect out of there! we need to stop these people!!!!! I will be camping there this weekend with video camera and gun!! again if your rig has been ripped in king or peirce county,I would be looking here. also I took pics of the rig being stripped,[the red one]and I have a paRtial vin # jt4rn635760 , its scratched hard to read!! If anyone needs help out there to find your rig e mail me!! take care!! ps rig being stripped had big sticker on the hood said all pro of puyallup also I found a pic of a dude right next to where my rig was stripped! as they were partying and taking pics!

Hey Johnnyv, just make sure to shoot them only with the camera , I had followed your story and was glad to hear you got your rig back... sorry to hear about the shape it was in. Those bastard(s) deserve some payback allright! Sounds like you found the "strip and split" spot. Just be safe when you camp this weekend and good luck catching those punka$$es!

....or make sure it looks sufficiently like self-defense.

John, anyway you can scan in that photo you found of the people around a Toy as it was being stripped?
Be sure to show that to the police too.

dumping grounds

Hey corry! Not positive it is him, but people I know , know this guy. they call him fish! because he looks like a fish!! and is known to have a master key to all toyotas!! [if there is such a thing!] and the guy in the photo looks like a fish!!! pretty strange how this picture is in the same spot where my rig was stripped! I will get a positive id on this guy today!! then I am calling the state patrol!!I wish I had a scanner. these people need to be stopped! there is still that rig I ran across out there being stripped! also these people are wearing gloves and leaving them behind!! you think the cops would get prints off these gloves!!! maybe a bunch of us could meet there and start recovering these rigs ourselves!!!also these people have shot guns as my radiator was shot!!! will post more later!!! take care!!

I was just kidding on the sniper stuff (fun as it sounds).
Not worth getting in a gun battle over a truck!

Collect all the evidence and turn it over ASAP to them there :pig: :pig: :pig:
Then sit back and watch the fireworks.
