I agree that this sounds like another drug-deal gone bad. This incident and the other one on Union Hill Rd sound very similar. A buyer sits in their car waiting for "someone", than that someone assaults them instead of selling anything. As for calling the cops, this teen probably couldn't go home with a stab wound & no phone (that the parents prob. pay for) so he had no choice. I'm wondering if …   more ›

How do the thieves know which cars are unlocked and which cars have the keys inside? I don't think the issue here is the owners' stupidity, but rather the fact that there are random people walking up and down the street attempting to steal every car. They may get lucky and find a stupid person's car, but I imagine they would have to be trying every car they see until they find one. That doesn't …   more ›
