This was great. I don't understand why the police won't help in getting the car back if you know exactly where it is. I understand that they aren't going to arrest anybody at the scene, but why wouldn't they at least accompany the rightful owner to go pick it up.

Did you not read the report?

“JUST heard back from DC police who says they were not called until AFTER the vehicle was recovered about 2 miles away in NE. Report indicates car was parked at 7:40 Weds and recovered at 11. DC police reiterate if you’re the victim of a crime to call 911.”

This whole thread is so annoying. Subject line says Nova guy, but report says DC. Then Fox shows stills from the video. Horrible thread, OP.

Do you think the police are telling the truth that they weren't notified until after the fact? I don't.

Hide a couple of trackers in your car, like I did.

If you watch the tik Tok, the car owner says they live in NYC and were down in DC for a friend's birthday. They had left their extra fob in the trunk so when the thieves broke into the car they found they were able to start the car because the fob was close. They drove away and got some gas.

The owner I think had a Subaru that has a tracking app similar to an AirTag, and he still had his main fob with him so they simply got an uber to the location, found the car, used their fob to unlock and left with it.

Owner isn't worried thieves will retaliate because he lives in NYC and thinks they won't make the special trip just to see him.

Great, but he could have been shot while he was getting his car! He really should have called police to accompany him... or maybe that would have precipitated a shootout?

Sigh. I don't know. This country is out of control with guns.

Should have notified MPD and given them an hour or less to get there.

They can be detected and removed very easily.
