Just found out!!

My Grandsons apartment was broken into over the weekend in Smyrna and they stole his wife's laptop, his guitar, and several other items like small Tv's. They didn't get his wife's gun because she had it with her. He is in the Military and in SC right now. They didn't get his Harley that he has stored in the extra bedroom but only because he has the keys with him for it and steering is locked but they said they tried to get it cause it was moved from where it was. I don't know how something like that can happen in broad daylight in an apartment complex and no one see it happening. Not one witness saw anything. Heck I live in a small triplex and no stranger can walk anyplace around here without someone asking them if they can help them with something. I guess it's just a case of no one wanting to get involved. They are looking at having an alarm system installed also that is monitored and has camera's now that they know he has that Harley in the bedroom he is worried they might come back. We watch for each other here at my house................ :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant:

A friend of mine in Smyrna had her car broken into and some valuables, including a laptop, stolen last night.  Bummer.

 

No way to completely stop this kind of thing, but alarms, keeping valuables out of plain view, and good neighborhood relationships can hopefully help deter the less dedicated thief.

Sounds like a rash of it down that way.

stay aware of your activity in your neighborhood, beware when selling items to strangers, try not to let them in your home and don't tell them when you come and go from work,school home, etc.

these guys hitting safes sounds too organized, i dont believe in coincidence....but it seems like turdbags are breeding quickly lately.. hope your son gets stuff back, advise him to get renters insurance is possible,, hope this helps...

Generally people who live in an apartment complex are not your friends & neighbors and are fearful to get involved or they may very well know who is involved...
