Nearly lost my car last night- i heard a noise downstairs (this is around 6am) and was half asleep/ thought nothing of it
the heard another and woke up a bit and then heard the stairs and someone opening spare room door- turned in my bed and listened and the intruder froze a second before moving quickly downstairs- I jumped up and ran down but they had legged it out the front or back door (not sure which)- maybe both cos two of them I think
.back door lock burst was open and all presses open and draw in hall, front rooms checked- rang gards and they sent car
.in the meantime I went down the road looking for them but nobody around- then went back and noticed nothing gone- mobile on counter top, dvds, etc all left- gards came and said were after the car keys to the Audi outside and they had broken into another house in the area which is where they had come from- when they saw the back door they said yep, same crowd
.can't believe it- I'm the end house deep in an estate- I'm convinced they had done a run of the area previously
.the crime lab people dusted for prints but found none- doesn't sound like young fellas joyriding to me
.i'm just lucky i had my keys beside my bed....i suppose take this as a warning to be careful where you leave your keys!!
