My van was stolen outside my apartment in Oakland a few years ago. I called in to report it had been stolen and got a call back less than 5 minutes later by an officer who was with my van in another part of town about to have it towed. It was just parked in the middle of the road.
When I got there to pick it up, I found other people's stolen mail, hundreds of feet of speaker wire, a car stereo, and a lunchbox full of hundreds of house keys among other items. It was as if they used it as a heistmobile. Unfortunately, a lot of my stuff was stolen like a camera and some clothing, but they didn't touch the thousands of dollars worth of climbing and snowboarding gear. It was almost as if they didn't even know what it was.
