Just had the Police around, my neighbour has just been bundled out of his Range Rover Sport by 3 men and they have made good their getaway..

Now, no-one has seen or heard anything, he lives pretty close say 5 yards from my living room to his driveway, so, we hear no shouting or anything.. very strange

I doubt they will get very far though as his car spewed oil everywhere 3 weeks ago and has been doing so since and he couldn't afford to get it fixed...... 😯 Still he has good insurance.....

I don't think that you should jump to conclusions.. I've been the victim of an aggravated burglary and in the first moments it was an almost silent thing only punctuated by the sounds of a struggle.. it took a while before the shouting started..
don't know if this was due to panic or adrenalin etc.. it was quite surreal

Wow this forum is great. Obviously you should tell the police what you know [ f all] but you should all help them solve other crimes with your special internet power of totally jumping to conclusions form the minimum of information.

There have been 2 break ins and 1 car theft on this street, all befalling to the same person, his car spewed oil 3 weeks ago and he hasn't been using it, today he uses it and it gets forcibly stolen off his drive as he gets home, yet he does not keep regular hours...

To right I'm suspicious

I am starting to build an image of this miscreant, does he wear a fur coat and a purple fedora, and walk with the assistance of a silver topped cane?

Repeat breakins at the same premises is not uncommon. Assailant knows the layout, knows the security (which often is only slightly improved each time) and the old stuff the nick gets replaced with brand new stuff. Car thefts are often linked to house break ins since its much easier to nick the keys than the car itself. May be they were looking for something specific (like the car keys) which is why the house got done twice. Rangerover Sport sounds like the sort of vehicle that would be quite nickable (in terms of value). Rangerover sport and "keeps irregular hours" sounds like the soft of person who might have some "interesting" business dealings and might well encounter the type of character who resolves disputes/debts without recourse to the courts! Nothing in there says "insurance job" to me.

Neither do I. I was abducted once too, and it was a distinctly non-shouty affair, very strange and surreal indeed. Faced with circumstance where you may be severely disfigured or even killed (as two victims of the same MO were in previous weeks I later learned) you don't react at all the way you'd imagine you might. Its not like the movies you know
