Stolen '07 Best Yarga 9m

[j.dub]

of all things the theives could've taken, our two 2-week new 9m best yarga (red with blue wing-tip) was stolen from our car while parked at jack london in oakland this evening. apparently OPD doesnt deal with car break-ins and a citizen stake-out is not advisable (though tempting), perhaps the kite will turn up somewhere... any leads is very much appreciated.



many thanks.

my friends car was broken into at 3rd Ave 2 weeks ago on a Sunday, and wallets stolen. I had not read anything warning people about theiving in kitebaording areas, but i guess sadly, it does happen everywhere.

oh man, that's insane! did they take anything else or just the kite? make sure watch craigslist and ebay, and make sure the local shops know about this.

wow, is anyone else disheartened that OPD doesn't deal with car break-ins? did you look around to see if there are any private CCTVs that might have caught something?

From my experience SFPD doesn't do anything either. I had a 16m kite stolen last year and they told me i was SOL. renters or homeowners insurance covers it though.

thanks. might claim homeowners insurance as visa purchase protection doesnt cover car theft. still, it hurts...
