I've got a Gen 4 Curse

So over the years my car has been egged and broken into a couple times, and a few months ago over the summer, some imbecile backed into my front end and I couldn't get anything to ever come of it. Police wouldn't file report b/c it was on Kroger's parking lot which = private property. And the brainless sponge that hit me would never come to court or squat.

Saturday night at about 11 at night I'm trying to fall asleep in my bedroom and I hear my dad jump up out in the living room and run outside. The he comes back in and calls 9-1-1. I jump out of bed and run out thinking some ones tried to break in our something. He takes me out side and shows me this:














Officer came and said he thought they threw a pumpkin.

I say...well there's no big orange thing in the car and there's no smashed guts any where.....Since my dad said he heard an exhuast come screaming down the street, and then stop, the window broke and then they took off, it sounds like they used a baseball bat or tire iron or something other than a pumpkin

Cop again says well I think they threw a pumpkin at your car.........

Me and my dad look at each other with a big old WTF look and just gave up till sunday.

WHen we went to clean it we found this











and the complete bottle:








PUMPKIN MY ARSE!!!!!!!!!!!!


Just this past weekend I put 5 hours by my self into wash wax and detail....

I put so much into keeping it running well and looking fine, but all the world seems to try and take it away from me.

THat sucks. It makes me sick to MY stomach, and it's not even my car!!!

Hopefully somebody knows something and you'll catch whoever it was, although judging by the local law enforcement that's a slim possibility.

This is wierd.

Twice this week I've had dreams about getting my Camry stolen or parted out in the driveway or smashed to shreds. Interestingly enough, I know how you feel, if only from a dream.

I'm really sorry about this, I hope you find them and destroy their fucking fart cannon piece of shit

Yes, bring the forensics too, they'll look for semen on the scene.

Ouch. That almost feels worse then when they break it to steal something...at least then they had a reason. Random hurting of other people...that's messed up.

Wow, hurting a defenseless car, it takes a big man to do that. Cowards. What pisses me off even more is they were obviously driving around town and drinking in the car.

+1 on dusting the bottle. If the guy was stupid enough to throw it at your car then he probably has probably been in trouble before and has prints on file down at the cop shop. Problem is there will be many prints on the bottle.

Good luck and hope they can find out who did it.
