Had to have a bay door up about three feet to allow my hardworking generator to ventilate outside; 17+ gls of fuel was stolen, plus what was in the generator...

Perp(s) were unable to take the generator as it's secured with a 3/4 inch (dia) steel cable; fortunately perp(s) missed one remaining fuel tank in back of me truck...

So, despite being awaken, was able to continue on with auxiliary power; this morning I discovered fuel was also siphoned from my second truck parked out front...

Then, agitated from being robbed of fuel (fuel and water are life right now here in Terrebonne And Lafourche) as well as the merciless heat, another discovery...

Perp(s) had taken over $2K in Milwaukee Tools and HiCap batteries (and I'd negotiatied a deal on the batteries at $65 (retail $125) with a volume purchase)...

So now when mornings started with rolling out at 5am with me pups and fuel tanks in search of fuel like a post-apocalyptic Mad Max experience, now this...

So in harsh heat today, rigged a ventilation fanned duct so the No. 3 bay door can be secured; now, another treat...

I've got to set random times during the night to wake up and patrol the perimeter of the building/property as rats (two-legged variety) are gnawing on steel panels...

There's folks in way worse shape than me, but it's tough not to be super agitated with looters and thieves nipping at you during the night...

Damn jp. I've got guns and ammo if you need some back up. And yes, I have a bullet proof vest. :biggun:

Thanks, Bro. Local PD borrows. The extra man would be appreciated.

Got it figured out now. And LE confided a few details of what I should be vigilant (grew up with several of them); will get some sleep tonight...

As I shoot regularly, practice situational defense, to reduce panic, hoping it won't come to my having to put someone down, really don't want it...

But, there's markers in my mind that triggered, they brought the consequences upon themselves - worst part, profiles shared with me, they're not even desperate...

Yep. Just taking your stuff to sell or trade. Sorry that's happening to you JP. At least you're smart enough to be armed.

Thieves will eventually have to face the consequences.

I go to the range every Friday where I am the range safety officer to practice. I don't shoot as much these days because it is so darn expensive to spend a couple of hours there.
