I got this from the Potomac News this morning. I will be writing a letter to the Board of Supervisors about the increased criminal activity.

Two vehicles stolen from parkway commuter lot
A four-door dark green 1996 Honda Accord and a four-door gold 1995 Honda Accord were stolen from the Prince William Parkway commuter lot Monday, said Detective Dennis Mangan, a Prince William police spokesman.
The lot is at 2250 Prince William Parkway.
Both cars have Virginia license plates and both are valued at about $7,000. They were taken during the day, Mangan said.

I contacted Ms. Griggs and she got back to me today with a statement from the Prince Wm. Police.
To summarize what the police said, they actually did catch one of the people who was stealing cars at Horner Road. They apparently caught him in the act driving a stolen car. I guess we don't generally hear about this when they catch someone. He is being charged in both PW and Arlington. They also stated that we don't yet have a statistical increase in auto theft at the lots, but they are very much aware of the problem and it is a priority. Both the PW Police and the state police patrol the lots.
As for the observation tower that has been in the works for a long time, they hope to have it in 4 to 6 weeks.
Thanks to Ms. Griggs and the Prince William Police.

My 1996 Honda Accord was stolen Jan 3 at the Tackett's Mill lot. The police found it that night on Rollingbrook Dr. with the airbags missing. Another Honda was also stolen from Harbour Dr. lot that day.
The detective told me there HAS been an increase in car theft, specifically for airbags. All slugs, especially Honda and Toyota owners, need to ensure that they use a club, at a minimum, as a deterrent. I was told that thieves ignore alarm systems at a commuter lot.
The police said that Horner Rd has the most vandalism.
Slugs beware, because the thieves are out there.

610 is getting worse too. Few weeks ago there were a bunch of windows broken and radio/phones/purses stolen from cars. Plus I've had my lugs loosened before there.
BTW, if whoever keeps stealing my firestick antenna's is reading this (happened 4 times since start of summer @39.95/ea)... Let me catch you doing it. I have the broken stub of the last one sitting in the back of the car. You'll find the broken end crammed somewhere you won't find too comfortable while I key my microphone and apply 12volts directly to your prostate.

I think break-ins are increasing all over stafford, not just in the lots. I've been hearing about them happening at high school athletic events while everyone is distracted. The people I heard it from hadn't had a problem before. I'm glad that I see a deputy in my lot every morning watching the place.

I had the lug covers taken off my Impala in the old 610 lot either yesterday or the day before so I know that it is getting worse all the time in that lot.

Ive come back to the horner lot many times and seen cars on jackstands. I was surprised to see a prince william county had one of those telescoping stands, the ones that someone gets in the pod, and it raises up so the person can view a large area.

Realize the event that just occured this past week where lots of crimes were commited. I know of dented cars and broken taillights as a result of someone's idea of "fun" on October 31st.
Be interesting to see the crime statistics plotted out for the months of October and November to see if there is a spike in crimes overall.

What I don't get is, Why are they stealing Wipers? Is it just to piss off the drivers? When it rains we are screwed. Can't see the road. Where's the road? Don't know, someone stole our wipers!

Pretend the wipers are Scoobie snacks and get going!

I've heard of people having their air bags stolen? Is there any sense to this? THAT would piss me off more than the wipers being stolen.

There is a profit to be made from airbags, I think it's like 1,000 each. It cost you about $4,ooo to have one re-installed.

When we wait on the freeway for cars to pick us up, we've seen cars on blocks before with no tires. How the heck does that happen with all the traffic going by? Where are the police?

The freeway? are you hitch-hiking to work everyday? I don't think we slugs are supposed to pick up hitch hikers.

Uh DUH!We aren't hitching rides. There is a line of people waiting for cars on Rt 17 and I-95.I've actually been in a car where the driver decided to stop and pick up a hitchhiker. Great! Now I'm in a car with the driver(whom I never met before) and the hitchhiker.
The girl next to me was flirting with the hitchhiker. The heck is going on around here?

AveMaria,
I don't think Scooby really cares that this is an old post. It looks to me like he and frankenstein are only concerned with how many posts/stars they can get in just a few days.
If you look at their registration dates, you will see that they have made a lot of meaningless progress in a very short time.
I think it's time to humanely euthanize these two critters. As it is very clear that they do not have a life. [;)]

Scooby,
It's hard to miss you when you leave flaming little piles of "Scooby Poo" at the door of every post. However, if it makes you feel better to think you have a "shadow" so be it.
P.S. MSCUSN, We won't even talk about the hot days! [:I]
