Police reports indicate five cars had been broken into or entered into along Allen road.

Most owners lost loose change, while one with her purse inside the car, had it stolen along with her credit cards and I.D.

There's no word if police have any suspects to this case.

Another car break-in happened at Pirate Place on Evans Street on the same night, just miles away from the others.

I suggest that ECU pick their security police from the ECU fans by lottery (numbers on their ticket). Let rhem dress in a pirate uniform as long as its purple.

I cant even believe that you people are even comparing criminals to freakn ECU fans!! Come on' the police are just mad, I do agree that the "Po-Po" were trying to do their job, but again, what is the point to kick and punch one or two when hunderds are running past you?? Stop being stupid and take care of the REAL criminals!!!!!

Exactly TW, No one want's us to bother with them until THEY need us. They want us to be able to enforce our laws until THEY break them,then it is "excessive force" or "police brutality". Many of these people are just hiding behind their computer monitors.

CW; You make a good case for the pro-choice movement.

Yeah Clint, because celebrating a Football game and stealing stuff is the same thing..come on!?

Did the "victims" really call the police for this? The same police getting slammed in the other story?Every one bitches about the police till you need them.

Should these criminals be apprehended for God sakes do not exert any physical effort that may be considered "brutality"
