Stolen and recovered Buddy 170i

Post by NDAWAY »

My Buddy 170i got stolen Monday afternoon. My son used it to get to work and about 2 p.m. noticed it was gone and called the police. They called about 3 hours later. They had chased down a stolen S10 Blazer and my stolen buddy was in the back of it. He broke the windshield into pieces bent the mirrors around and tried to drill through the ignition, I don't believe he ever got it started. I took most of the plastic off the front to get the ignition off. I've checked everything out and have a new ignition switch and keys coming tomorrow hope it starts

We ordered a heavy-duty chain and lock. It will now be chain down when he's at work

I hope the thief didn't get away. Did the cops catch him? Or did he bail and run?

Thieves are scum of the earth.

He wasn't there when I got there. I asked one of the cops and he said he was running and they had a K-9 unit in Pursuit also. He pulled the Blazer into someone's front yard and took off running on foot, and the officer said quote "our dog bit him in the face and he's at the hospital now"
