Broken into

[sharris721]

An ice cream shop found her purse with nothing missing! Now I'm only out the deductible ($100) and not being able to drive my car for awhile.

Also I want to thank everyone for their kind words and advice, it feels really good to be a part of this community.

[aceangel]

I'm glad you got your stuff back! That's awesome. Now I'm thinking I should get a better alarm...

wow! Didn't think it would cost half that

Did the ice cream shop ID the people that left the purse there?

Wow, the cost of that damage was insane. All the more reason to spring for tint and an alarm.

I've owned many cars over the years, lived in sketchy neighborhoods, and have never had my car's cabin broken into (knocks on wood). I would like to think its because I always have tint, an alarm, and don't leave anything in plain view.

That's outrageous! I'd expect exactly that if somebody broke anything on my car with force the alarm should go off!

Funny story, I know someone who leaves their keys in the vehicle at work, kind of a dumb thing to do but if someone wants to risk losing their vehicle then that's their business.

It was probably a monkey, just visiting his relatives.

What, I'm not being racist.

Worst part is Before we went exploring into the zoo she had said "should I put my purse in the trunk?" I replied "Nah" so I guess I have to listen to what she says now...maybe.

Is that the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo? My wife and I were in Cleveland for 3 days last week. Needless to say I'm not surprised it would happen, considering the area in which the Zoo is located.

Interior door panel, weather stripping, door was re-clear coated, Subaru had to program the window I guess, and then a bunch of labor

Yep, parked right next to the entry road.
