But what can I do about it????

I had my car broken into this afternoon and had my phone stolen. Now before you all start telling me I shouldn't have left in in there , I bloody know that, and I'm really p**sed at myself for doing it. I had parked outside the girlfriends house and had only gone in a few minutes when I heard a car reving outside, I had a look because she doesn't live in the best area of town and my car does stand out a bit. There were two scrotes in a Fiesta waiting for the lad who lives next door, I watched as he walked down the path and had a good look at my car, then the fiesta pulled forward so it was hidden behind my car, waited a few seconds then drove off.
About half an hour later I realised my phone was not in my pocket and went to the car to get it, only to find a broken window and no phone. As I was clearing up the glass one on the neighbours came down and said she had seen a maroon Fiesta with 3 lads in pull up next to my car and one of them was leaning into the car, with gloves on, next thing they drive off at high speed.
Now my question is, how do I handle this?? I have reported it to the police but I didn't tell them that I'm 99% certain I knew who did it. I want to talk to the kid and try to buy my phone back off him as it has lots of really important numbers stored in it. If he won't do this them I may tell the police , but I don't have to live there , my girlfrind does and I don't want anybody trying to get revenge on me through her.

What do you all think?

You need a very big friend to have a chat with him. Something like, 'my friend has sent me to collect his phone now so where is it'. Don't make any threats but make it clear you know he has it and will be Very Angry if you don't get it back.

Beat the ever loving crap out of the little bastard, and buy your Girlfreind a German Shepherd.

Added: Then clone the fiesta (can't be expensive) and have loads of fun at his expense...

Sorry to hear that Andy Sounds like a very awkward situation. Maybe you should inform the police as to who you think it is and get them to have a word, something like give back the phone and pay for any damage and you won't press charges? Not ideal I know but if you're worried about revenge what else can you do? (well except bring back corporal punishment )

On behalf of the little scrotes future victims, arrange for an anonimous mate to give the little darling a life changing experience.

dont bother talking to him.....it makes no diffrence to tossers like that.

either report the tossers and have them nicked or knock on his parents door and tell them you (and several witness's)know him and his mates smashed your window and nicked your phone and tell them they can either pay for the repair and clean up of the glass and any damage to the seats,etc and replacement of the phone or warn them that your going to wait for him to come home and then your going to get the money for the repair out of him by kicking the to kingdom come!......actually that,just grab him,tie him to your towing eye and drag the thieving little bastard through the streets!

Agree with the above, take a big mate and grab the little tosser and ask for your phone. If he aint got it either beat the crap out of him or phone the cops, your choice!

Thanks for all your ideas guys, trust me they are nothing I had't thought of already!! But like I said my first concern is for my girlfriend and her 3yo daughter, if it wern't for them he'd already be strung up from the nearest lamp post by his bo**ocks!!
Via some 'contacts' I've managed to get hold of what I'm told is his mobile number, of course it's switched off at the moment. If I get no joy from that then I might go and tell his Mum and see if she can excert any influence on him.
I'll keep you posted

The fear of excessively violent retribution is THE only thing these bastards can relate to.
Youll get *nowhere* with the, "please can i have my phone back or ill tell your mummy " line.
Head on in his face with a sharp implement under his jaw will get the desired result.
Its the only thing they can really understand- pain.

I agree. It's time he learned the error of his ways.
No-one thinks that talking to him will be a solution,
he's probably passed it on by now anyway.
Good luck and keep us up to date.

The scum has not respect for you anyway as they would not have done it if they had.
IMHO I would forget about the phone, and just get revenge, wait a little while first so he does not suspect you and then administer justice, also keep eye out for the fiesta again, get the reg find out the owners address - Hammer time.

Cant disagree with Outlaw on this one.

There isnt much the police can do here - the evidence is enough to satisfy me, but not enough for a conviction. Its all circumstantial.

And lets be frank, the odds of him still having the phone are close to zero.

Put the fear of god into the little shit.

Why not get the benefit of both options?

Tell the police and see if that has any effect.

If not, arrange for a large man to visit and make it clear that phones + repair costs are due. Refusal or retribution on your girlfriend will result in the unthinkable.

You just need to put the fear of god into him that he's picked on the wrong guy, rather than someone who will roll over and take it. If you've got connections, use them.

Sadly, I feel bound to condone the calls for vigilantism...

The police, despite their probable feelings to the contrary, will be hamstrung unless David Lean happened to be in the vaccinity with a George Lucas's personal PanaVision crew and some top notch 70mm film, backed up by a team of lawyers and other evidential providers at the time to verify that, beyond a shadow of reasonable doubt, it was indeed little Jimmy Turd who done the deed (dirt cheap, no doubt).

Thus, the oily wee peasant needs reminding of his place i'the great scheme of things and if manacles aboard a prison vessel bound for the southern hemisphere is not on the menu, then an abject lesson in cranium impact analysis would seem morally imperative.

It really does make me want to explode, such is the inability of Albion 2003 PLC to defend it's own.

By the horned fury of the boy Beelze, this is a damned disgrace - but all too wearily common.

I DESPAIR.
