Watch out!!!


Sunday night at about one in the morning, Tagg was crying so I went in and fed him and was getting him back to bed when I heard something. I thought it sounded like a big truck going by (I was really too tired to even try to figure it out). I did not think anything of it just went along trying to be as fast as I could so I could get back to bed, when I then heard my dogs start to bark, then I heard a clanking sound, so I looked out the window and two teenagers ran out of our garage. I yelled for Jake and ran outside to see if I could see where they went. I ran outside and saw them run and hide behind a jeep parked just down from our house. I yelled at them and then Jake came outside....that is when they jumped in their jeep and took off....Jake with no shoes ran and almost caught their jeep as they were driving off. He then Jumped into his truck and chased them down while I called the police. He drove down the street and saw them parked down a side street down from the mink farm. He turned around and chased them down the street. They threw the gas can they stole from the garage on the street (it was still full). They then went down this little dirt road and back out on the main street, that is where Jake lost them. We could never get close enough to get their plate number, but we know it is a early 90s stile jeep Cherokee (the box looking ones) and it is a dark grey, possibly brown color. So if you see one parked on the side of the road late at night pay attention to it. We think that they live close by because they knew the side roads and where they lead to. They broke into Jakes truck and opened the garage door by the door opener. (the noise I heard at first was not a truck but our garage door). So be careful, I think that they would have done more if our dogs had not started to bark at them.

That is totally scary Lindsey! How did they get into your garage? You guys are so lucky that they didn't steal more! I am glad that you are all safe!
