The Police Stole our SUV yesterday!!!!
Then I put Bear outside to potty & thought to myself... Theres no way Andrew would have just taken the SUV... So I looked at Andrew's parking spot & his car was gone... Hmmm thats strange... I put Bear back into the kitchen to eat & saw the SUV key on Chad's wallet... ok now thats very strange! There is only 1 key to the SUV.
I woke up Chad & said the SUV isn't in our parking spot. He moaned, so I gently rubbed his back & repeated myself... That woke him up & he got upset thinking I was lying to him... Thats when I knew for sure it was stolen. I said I'm not kidding, I can't find the SUV, its not there!! Maybe I'm blind, but I swear I cannot see it!!
I have never seen him get up so fast from bed & get dressed. He rushed out the door & said, OMG Bill's going to kill me!!!
He called the police to make a report, but since we didn't have the VIN#, they couldn't help us. That didn't help us from panicking! We put our coats on & rushed over to the supers. They were off duity "of course", but they have a life too. So we walked all around our complex, "just incase".. no luck...
We stopped at our friends to let them know the SUV was stolen. Chad then got a phone call telling him the police towed the SUV as it was reported stolen
A lady with an italian or polish accent called it in.
First off, anyone in the complex is suppose to call management about getting cars towed, or they are to call the tow company thats for the complex.
This lady with the accent is believed to be our neighbour, as she has put a lot of bogus complaints in against us.
She knew if she called management then they would have known it was our SUV as our spots have been noted that we will have random autos in our spots that will not have plates on them... As they are dealer cars & dealer plats can cost 800.00 to replace! So its safer to bring the plates into the house.
The dealership for sale sign was still in the front window. So that there tells you its "more then likely" NOT stolen, the plates are just inside the house.
Well the police officer felt it was best to have the SUV towed as stolen & recovered at 3:40am <-- remember it was never "reported" stolen!!
A police officer called us later in the morning & said sorry a million times about this, as it should NEVER have happened. She was very kind & made sure we knew we did nothing wrong, it was all their fault. She was even kind enough to call Chad's boss to let him know that it was the departments fault 100% & NOT to get upset at us, or have us fired (I help out at the dealership often, as a friend).
The police said we didn't have to pay any fee to bail the SUV out. We just had to go to their station so pick up the tow paper.
That was a FAR drive & took us forever to find it as we don't know Brampton, let a lone our own area (we're new to the area). Then we had to drive even further to the pound to bail the SUV out. My goodness!
We got the SUV & had to drive it all the way back out to the dealership. Now its 1pm & too late for me to drive all the way to my work, as I would have gotten there for about 2pm, leave at 5pm & have to go all the way back out to the dealers.. HA don't think so... So I lost a whole days pay :(
Our landlady is going to findout who called in our SUV, & IF it was our neighbour, shes going to make them pay for all the damages. Wadges lost & damage to the SUV. They towed it by the back end & thats a no no for our type of SUV. So now the poor SUV pulls all over the place & trying to turn sharp into a parking spot is interesting. It was shaking, making all sorts of grinding noises & resisted to go forward. *pets the SUV*
What erks us ontop of all that, is that we spent 20.00 having it washed & looking all perdy & when we got it, it was so filthy :(
Our landlady feels horrible about this all. She said we don't deserve to live like this, so she offered us a new unit.
We checked it out last night & it was an AUTO yes!!! OMG the front yard is 4x larger then our current yard, as its a corner unit!!! The layout is the same, but its slightly different & far cleaner!! Its still a mess, as they haven't finished cleaning out all the trash yet, but she said it'll be perfect by the end of next week... Then we have 2 weeks to move our stuff over, so we don't have to spend any money on a rental truck. Ohhhh Bear is just going to love how HUGE the yard is!!
So all this HELL has turned into some good :D
We are getting our landlady a very special gift for all her wonderful help & support. We are buying her 2 reservations for dinner at the CN Tower!!!
