OMG! Today as I had just gotten home, probably around 5:50 – 6:00 PM, I saw that my neighbor was outside the house on her cellphone and a little jumpy. As I get out of my car she quickly calls me over to her and tells me that her house was broken into because she saw that the back door was open and the screen broken. I freak out a little at first thinking they probably hit my house next, she tells me to be careful and to check my house too.
I go in and everything is alright. Of course I quickly grabbed a huge knife from the kitchen and had cell in my pocket just in case. I check the whole house and nothing, thank God, so I go back outside to see if she is ok, since her baby is in the car. That’s when I see her practically screaming and crying into the phone, I run over to her and asked her what was wrong and she’s like “OMG, I just saw the person in my house, he just walked past the window”. At this point, I’m now freaked out, because the person IS STILL HERE. So she gets in her car and drives across street to another neighbor’s driveway. I run back into my house and lock all the doors, but thing I’m most freaked out about is the back door to my house. The stupid lock is broken and the only thing holding it closed is an old plastic/metal broom stick, which I’m sure won’t work if you use enough force. Anyways, so I’m thinking this guy is gonna hop the fence and break into my house and I start calling people and finally get in contact with my best friend. At first I could hear that he just woke up, but when I called his name he instantly woke up and knew something was wrong. The minute I told him that my next door neighbor’s house was broken into, he was like ok I’m on my way. No questions, nothing…God he is such a good friend!
Anyways, so the cops came…about 4 or 5 of them and they closed off the street and even had the police helicopters going around the air, since we have woods behind our houses. I was actually really surprised by how fast they responded. At one point, I went outside and a cop that was there was like; “Ms. please go back into your house.” I was talking to Dustin (my friend) and how he probably wouldn’t be able to get into the street and I was going to ask the cop if he could come. Basically the cop wasn’t going for that, so I told him that I was freaked out because my back doors lock was broken, so he was like OK and escorted me outside of the “barricade” and I saw Dustin pull up. I was so friggin happy to seem him!
The cops were probably on my block for a good hour and half or so before they re-opened the street to people and started to leave. It was hella freaky! I just hope this STUPID PERSON doesn’t decide to come back and hit up my house!
What’s weird about it all too, is that not even two weeks ago or so, one of my co-worker’s house was broken into as well. What the hell is up with people all of a sudden. Are times THAT hard that they need to start robbing good people of their EARNED goods? It’s just so shameful. >=(
