Police: Thieves targeting people walking in neighborhoods at night

Story here

"...the thieves typically got away with cash and iPhones."

Genius! Steal something with an embedded GPS device. I bet the cops knew where they were within eight meters.
That's out where I live. I never pull in my driveway if there's a car I don't recognize behind me. I circle around and come back to pull in. There's one crime prevention tip they didn't mention in the segment. If you have an iPad carry it with you in plain sight so the robbers can see it. They'll leave you alone. Thanks to forum member forkush for this valuable tip.

I smell a challenge. Maybe Forkie could walk around a black high crime area waving an IPad while you circle around a white high crime area in your car. The Ghetto Walk and Ride is born.

My new Samsung Galaxy S4 phone has a non-contract price that's higher than most iPads. And there's only about 10,000,000 of us death defiers walking around with them in the first month of sales. Gosh, we are all sooooooooo brave! (compared with Estes that is)

Alrighty then. It looks like Forkie's in, but he'll be substituting his new higher non-contract price Samsung Galaxy S4 in place of the IPad. That's fair. I don't think these holdup men are apple snobs anyway. How about that not so brave Estes? Is the car in good working order?

I think you're going to have to arrange for estes to be followed by a car he doesn't recognize. Otherwise, he'll just pull into a driveway and mess up the whole dang challenge.

Hmmm. We need a volunteer to drive the chase vehicle.

I don't think we need a 'spotter' for Forkie as I'm sure his new Samsung Galaxy S4 phone will allow us all to track his movements in real time.

And Twitter and Instagram. Dang, I've always wanted something to tweet about.

Forkie needs to be rocking the samsung with ear buds. Singing along to Mandy by Barry Manilow as he traipses through the hood.
