NOVA Jeepers Catch a Thief

http://www.marylandcreepers.com/phpB...er=asc&start=0

I saw the NBC4 news report the other night, some 18 year old kid stole a winch, hi-lift and spare tire off a couple of Jeeps in Fairfax. Then this kid posts the stolen items for sale on the Internet and as you can guess, winds up arrested. Various local DC area offroad clubs carried posts of the stolen items and someone spotted them on the Pirate4x4 board for sale.

Here's a TiVo link to the NBC News Report.

Fantastic!
I love posts seeing a crook get caught.

In fact I think it's the first time I have ever seen one get caught.
Lucky he did not get shot, as I would have shot him first, then called the police.

Awesome, too bad the Jeepers can't get first crack at him for just five minutes.

That is Justice. I know we all work hard to get our rigs in shape for the trail, and nobody likes someone to take it away.
This board and other forums seem to be working!

Man, glad I have a lock on my Glove box, this can't be the only idiot out there who's grabbing easy stuff. Still need to get the top off...

The stupid little douche-bag had evidently been doing this for awhile, judging by the other single tires, winches w/o accessories, lights w/o harnes, etc. on his now defunct WebShots page. He was in cuffs within 12 hours.
