car theives or stupid kids?

Last Sunday around 4am I woke up to my car alarm going off and my gf lil brother screaming that someone is trying to break into my car. So I run outside and dont see anyone around but my windshield was all smashed up. my gf lil brother said all he saw was 2 people running away, possibly asian(they were wearing puffy north face jackets w/ black hair.) Wierd thing about this is that there was about 5 other cars in the drivway and mine was the closest one to the house but was the only one that was vandalized.

anyways i got my car towed today to get repaired and the tow truck driver was telling me that he thinks they were possibly testing my car alarm to see how sensitive it is so they can come back for my rims,stereo,ect...

has anyone every heard anything like this or am i just being paranoid? im just worrried because i have a stock alarm and i dont think it would go off if they tried to take my rims

i don't think dumb kids would be out at 4am in the freezing cold trying to break shit. they were most likely trying to jack it up

It was some faggot kids probably... If they wanted to steal shit they would have smashed your driver side / passenger window instead of the fucking windshield... common sense... something they don't have.

even when you have a compustar, what makes you think it'll stop? if they wanted your rims, your car would have be on blocks and not damage windshield.

+1. Something like an alarm isn't always going to deter thieves, if they want it, they will try to get it.

In terms of your situation, I have heard of just the same thing happening (well.. almost). One night my friend woke up to see his car had a dent on the roof as it appeared that a LARGE rock had been thrown at his car... the following day his car was broken into and his subs/amp/deck stolen... We were left to assume that the people who vandalized the car the first night were the same people to return the second night, simply testing whether or not he had an alarm or not. Sucks that it happened to you, but at least nothing was taken...

not sure what else you could do then at this point. maybe keep the lights on in the front yard and check up on the car more often after dark.
