They don't always get away

Just thought I'd share with you all our experience from today. We've been plagued by numerous break ins on a job we are doing in Sheffield including our track chipper. One of our teams locked a strimmer in the transit on the back seat when they returned a local scrote on a motorbike had smashed the rear windows and was making off with the strimmer they gave chase and managed to pull him off the bike, fortunately an unmarked police car was passing and arrested him , he'd also stolen the bike.

That's a shame, no time to give the little **** a bit of therapy:laugh1:

Nicely done there!! Although it would've made you cross i bet you it looked funny seeing a chav legging it off down the road on a bike with a strimmer whilst being chased by a van driven by a no doubt very angry man!!

on a similar note i had an attempted breakin at my house last tuesday, Which was my birthday so was hoping for a lie in when i was woken by my rear neighbour calling me. i assumed his sheds where under attack so i ran out rear doors to see a lad on my right climbing my side fence, automatic reaction was to lash out at him and he promptly fell 8 foot onto my neighbours block paving. whilst this was happening my rear neighbour had managed to catch another lad exiting into the side road. He was begging to be let go saying it wasn't him it was his mate who was trying to steal my quad. my neighbour phoned the police who arrived before he had finished on the phone to them. 2 police cars and at least 2 riot vans arrived and carted of them off. Result.

Guys, heartwarming news. Let's hope Old Bill throws the book at them

I've got to say I was rather impressed with the police response as I live in a rural village and with all the press lately saying they are not responding to 'minor' crimes like burglaries and assault!
