More than likely the police already know who he is (previous booking) and a facial match at the station compared to the high quality version of the video likely wouldn't take very long at all.

Maybe he was thinking about buying one for his car and just wanted to get a closer look at one and see how it was attached ... ??

Damn that's super scummy. I echo what's been said before and give us the raw 1080 file from the first video and we could probably grab the license plate number for you in adobe premiere. At that point, you could take the footage, plate number, and pictures of the damage to the police.

Grab the video. Go to the police and say you want to press charge to attempt robbery/property damage. They should be able to find the owner based on the plate. Do this at least, you may end up in small court claims. Be prepared when you go see them, have pic of the damage and the video on a usb drive, if you do all the work they should help you on the spot since they have nothing to investigate.

For the people trying to categorize theif by the car they drive..it doesn't f*cking matter, a theif is a theif.

EDIT: got the videos from OP but I couldn't pull anything good off it unfortunately... hopefully somebody else can do better

@vincent201089

Any chance you could send me the raw video? I'm going to PM you my email address. I'm more of a photographer but I dabble in videography from time to time. I can put together the video so it's one video and also try to pull the plate information for you. I'm no CSI so no guarantees but I'll do my best.

My guess is he stole shit before. Look at how calm he is when he's messing with the plate.

This grinds my gears. I feel for you OP… Glad you have evidence, and yes, get the cops involved.

Check with the mall security, they may have camera footage of the plate for this lowlife POS.

Who does this type of thing? Especially in broad daylight.
