Police so far have failed to show up at my brotherLs. But thank god both are well, although my boss couldnLt come to work today.

Yow. :sweat:

I thought carjacking was only an American thing. :sweat:

Glad everyone's safe... Hope everything works out. :fingerscrossed:

Well in Latin America, they'll carjack you while you're stopped at a red light or while you slow down for a 'stop' sign. :sweat: That's why people don't even bother stopping in some cases.

Yeah, but you still have to step out/into the car. :sweat:

That and hammer the car enough and you can open it like a soda can. Keeping your awareness up is the key. The armored car is really only good for buying time to get out of the kill zone. If you treat it like a shield, it ends up being your coffin.

What a nightmare! :shocked: Thank God your boss is OK!

In L.A. someone tried to steal my friend's grandmothers jewelery at a red light. She told him where to go(they were rings her departed husband had given her) and was shot in the hand. She swerved into the carjacker and drove off wounded.
And she doesnt look tough at all. She looks like a little old lady. :applaud:
