[skip68]

Only been in this house for a little over a month, and Chuck's new work van was broken into!!!! They stole ALL of his tools! toolbags, sawzaws, drills, pipe benders, electrical parts, EVERYTHING!!!!!! I swear we never get a break!!! Thousands of dollars in tools, gone! Chuck is an electrician, so now he has no livelyhood!!! We are sooooooo Fu$%in pissed!!! Chuck had to cancel an electrical job that was to be this morning! Now we're just waiting for the cops!!!! Sorry to rant, but I needed to!
The Skip68's!!!

Oh by the way......our insurance won't cover this!!!!!

[Brock Samson]

Well that just sucks,.. sorry for your loss,.. 

[41husk]

I would think home owners and or auto should cover something?  Good luck and sorry for the loss.

[TUFCAT]

I feel really bad  - - you guys are good peeople and deserve MUCH BETTER.   

[skip68]

well we just got the van last Saturday, and when we got insurance, Chuck asked about full coverage. They said it would only cover the van, not the contents. So with that being said, we had just put PL/PD on it. We are leasing this house, and unfortunatly don't have renters insurance yet.

That really sucks, it's even worse since the insurance won't cover it. Feel really sorry for you.

Bastards........Hope they catch them 

[THE COLONEL]

I am so am sorry to hear that.   I hope they cathc the &%^%$'s!!!!!!   Good luck with getting back on your feet with the job.

[Mike DC]

Sorry to hear that. 

I hate to hear it went down like that.  Sounds like they picked the one specific way to rob you guys where it won't be covered by anything.



Stealing a riding lawnmower or a big-screen TV is one thing.  But stealing a person's tools?  The tools used for making a living? 

Man, that's just against the rules.  Below the belt. 

 

[moparstuart]

   Wow sorry to here that.  You guys have had some really bad luck lately .   

[NHCharger]

Did he have his name or any ID etched on the tools? I'd be checking the local pawn shops and ebay.

[RD]

i have a pretty new dewalt sawzall that i can let you borrow.  I will ship it to you and then when you are done with it, ship it back?  let me know.

He only had "skip" written on them in sharpee. But everything else we get later on WILL be engraved! Right now, he has nothing to make a living with. Just sucks!

THAT SUCKS!!
DARN STREET RATS!

A guy we knew had $11,000 worth of tools stolen out of his barn two monthes ago.

[chargerman68]

what tools do u need a have tons and have access to tools...LET ME KNOW AND THEY ARE ON THE WAY

[Charger_Fan]

You guys are still in Vegas, right? Man, that sucks.

My father in law is a contractor & was doing a job in Vegas a dozen years ago for a week or so. Someone stole his truck (fulll of tools) from the hotel parking lot. The Highway Patrol found it about a week later, abandoned in the desert somewhere.
He figures that some of the other workers at the job site had followed him after he finished for the day & went back in the middle of the night, to swipe the truck.
I would definitely check out any tweakers/illegals at the job site, if I were you guys.

[mikepmcs]

Sorry to hear this and hope they hunt them down and kill them. Sorry, that is how I feel about thieves.

Throw a list up of tools that he needs right now to continue to get the job done and keep working.  I know I have a sawzall, that I will give ya'll no problem.  Seriously, throw a list up and I will send you anything I have on that list.  I will also ask my buddy Ryan, who is going to school right now for this very thing and see what he can dig up.

I will literally send you everything I have/can.

[Johnny SixPack]

So sorry to hear this!
I hope there is some sort of positive outcome to this.

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

Sorry to hear of your misfortune.   As an aside I know my local Home Depot has a tool rental section.....just a thought to not lose the job....

[skip68]

Thank you to all.    I'm making the list for the police which will be a couple pages.      I don't want to be a charity case as I know everyone is just trying to help and that is so cool .  So, for right now I'll see what I can do far as a list for the police and so I can figure out what I've got to have to get rolling and get what I can. Please take no offense as I will try to get what I need on my own.  I've been an electrician for 12 years and had the tools to work for myself as I've been doing.  Those bastards wiped me out.    And on top of it as I went to go to the store for some soda after the police left I noticed they took all of my gas to.    So I got my 5 gallon can and took Lisa's car to get some gas and just figured that it was time for some renters insurance. Dam me for not having it.    You touch a mans tools you might as well touch his wife is my attitude.     We just moved over here on the west side in a good area for a reason.  This is not a lower class neighborhood so we feel safe here,  until now.  I'm just so angry that I feel sick,    But tommarrow's another day and I will still be here and I still got my car.    Again, much thank's to my Charger family and when the time comes for me to beg, you will all know.      Chuck...........

I agree, hopefully things will get better for you soon  hang in there!

[71ChallengeHer]

Skip And Lisa, That is terrible. I wish I had tools to send you.    I hope things start to go better. 

[Drache]

I cant offer you tools but I do have enough firearms and ammunition to arm a small country that I can lend to the cause

Oh yeah... guess that would help although shooting random objects can be fun especially if they are explosive!
