At gun point

Just a warning to others.

Thur night after I just got home after an AA Bible study where I go to
help others, I parked my car across the street so I could put my moms
van into the driveway first, as it was also on the street. Relatives just left
on their way back to IOWA. They had to park in the driveway-Its a law here in IL. Just as I aproached the front door and put the wrong key in, 2 looked
to my left to see 2 men dressed in black, one stayed back, the other put a 45
in my face and turned my head away from him, as he pushed my face to the
porch and put his 45 to the back of my head firmly. He yelled to stay down and also where wea my walet and car key. He then yelled at me to stay down as he ran off and Bye Bye 07 Tl Type-S With tinted windows, Volk GT-S wheels,
and Tein SA Coilovers lowered . Cops said They were staking me out.

BEWARE !!! I LIVE IN A VERY GOOD NEIGHBORHOOD .
EVIL IS SPREADING LIKE WILD FIRE !!!!! LOOK AROUND AS YOU COME
OUT OF YOUR CAR !!!! I ALWAYS DO, I AM AWARE OF EVERYTHING
AROUND ME , BUT THAT NIGHT I HAD ALOT ON MY MIND FROM BIBLE
STUDY <3 ALL GOOD THINGS <3 AMEN <3 GOD BLESS ALL

This is why we have insurance. The most important thing is that they didn't take anything more than your car. Glad to hear you're safe.

Woah, JD you've been off the forums for a while, this isn't what I wanted to see.

I'm glad you're okay though and I really hope they find your car in the condition it was found. Good luck, buddy.

Wow, I'd been wondering lately where you've been, hadn't seen you on the forums in a long time. Wish this wasn't the reason for your comeback, really sorry to hear that.

Glad you were ok though, and hopefully they catch those guys.

Thankfully they didn't do anything else besides taking the car. At those situation you kinda wish they just take the car and leave. Glad you are ok.

Sorry to hear, but glad you're OK. I'm concerned that crime is just going to increase in all parts of the country. I'm afraid, we'll all have to be more careful in our regular activities going forward.

Please keep up posted in how things work out with your insurance. You have a Nav so be very careful at your home since the address is likely in your Nav along with the registration and insurance paperwork and of coarse the house key on your car keys.

Oh wow, what a horrible story! Good thing is that they only took off with your car and nothing else. Hopefully they catch the scumbags who did this to you. Please keep us posted on any developments in this story. Stay safe.

Very sorry to hear this and I'm glad you weren't harmed. Rules of karma will apply here and I don't doubt the scumbags will be looking at the receiving end of a gun very soon. Make insurance work for you on this one.

Dang, hard core JD. Glad to hear you're ok. Time to change out the door locks and file a fraud alert to freeze your credit for 90 days. Also monitor Craiglist and Ebay for your rims.

This poor economy is driving people to do things they normally would not do. Really sad.

Sorry to hear this bro. Glad you are ok. The same thing happened to my uncle in new york. He was at a red light and was driving a mint old school cadillac. Two guys put him on gun point and made him get out the car and then stole it. He never saw it again but he was ok. A car can be replaced but a human life cant. Hope it all works out for you...
