got the yard broken into on sat afternoon, at 4 in the afternoon! white transit, 6 blokes, took the gate off the hinges, reversed into the yard and were dragging a load of cable that we had stored ready to go to the scrappy at some point..

 

i arrived while they were there, they started to run off.. like the fool i am i decided i was not having my stuff stolen and bust up so i ran after them... as i said.. there were 6 of them, fightin types.. i got a right pasting. on the floor with repeated punches and kicks to the head.

 

likley broken jaw, split lips cheeks, and concussion. great...

 

nickled me phone and drove through the back end of my car whcih id tried to block the gate off with. (write off)

 

i know we all wanna protect our stuff and our places guys but i recon next time it might be better to just block their escape, and get phoning people/ police whoever... but from out of the way... a bit of gear gone is one thing. but it could end up a lots worse than what i got..... ( however in the situation again id probably do just the same as i did this time and go stormin after them)

 

 

 

a couple of asian looking blokes were involved which dosnt strike as normal pikie to me... they had been round that morning apparently to check the place out according to the neighbour,

 

white tranist no distinct markings (however now a bust up front passenger side light cluster and bumber)

 

last 3 digits of numberplate HCB if anyone sees anythin like that round the oxfordshire area please let me know as the police cant seem to find it.. (suprise)

 

keep safe guys

How come when the bin men don't show up you're allowed to take your rubbish to the tip, but when the police can't be bothered to follow up theft/breakins etc, you're not allowed to take the law into your own hands?

 

You should be allowed to get tooled up and sort this sort of scum out and get a rebate on your council tax for doing it!

 

My monday morning rant over.

sounds like you were lucky, but well done for standing up for your property that you have worked for, i think most people would have the red mist descend at the sight of that, i know i would have

Bloody hell, hope your ok mate and heal quickly. We have alot of people around here who drive around looking for scrap, they usually ask but if you say no they will come back later and take it.

Hope you find the scum
