Default Who the hell steals taillights?

So here it is...

my room mate called me this mornin after he walked out to his truck to go to school, and told me my tail lights were missing, so i went outside and the tailgate was down and they were gone.

whoever did it stole both taillights and the third brake light

police officer came, he dusted for prints, etc...

i live in a gated apartment complex, but i guess that won't stop them from stealing my ****

seriously, taillights? cmon

welcome to houston i guess

Yup, theives are retarded, annoying ******. Someone took the time to unlock my truck through the windows I left down maybe 0.5" in the UTA parking lot, all for some $10 sunglasses from WalMart. Woow.... They left all the important info in the glovebox, tons of receipts in the center console, etc.
