Default My friend's skate shop just got robbed a 4th time!

It's a painful experience.

This guy puts his heart and soul into skateboarding and the bastards just ripped him off for a FOURTH time.


Skaters ripping off a skate shop. Sad. Truly pathetic. But, they got fingerprints! And they will press charges.


I am recommending this>FOG SECURITY SYSTEM


Intruders attacking commercial premises know that they will trigger an Intruder Alarm which will summons a Police response via a monitoring station. The crooks are also aware that unless they are unlucky, the Police response is unable to attend in less than seven minutes. The crooks will normally spend those seven minutes removing items from the premises. During that time, they can clean out a fairly large amount of inventory.
To achieve this however, requires a fairly rapid incursion into the premises, moving around the area at speed to remove equipment or stock. By reducing visibility to less than 2 inches, Fog Security Systems™ makes movement at all extremely difficult and movement at speed impossible.
In Customers' premises which have Fog Security Systems™ installed and who have suffered subsequent attack, intruders have been turned back at point of entry. Thieves were denied access to the protected premises.
The Fog Security System™ is triggered by any existing, or newly installed intruder alarm. Protection is provided within seconds of the alarm system being activated in the correct place, instantly. The dry nature of the Fog ensures that no deposition occurs.
Fog Security Systems™ installed to date have proven to be 100% successful in either deterring Break-Ins at their initial stages, or the Break-Ins have stopped altogether due to notification that this form of security is present.

Oh, you mean he got burgled. That's a bummer! I thought you meant he was robbed, as in at gunpoint, knifepoint or threat of rotten poutine. That's even worse.

The hard part for many small proprietors is getting to the point where they can or want to spend the money on welded bars over the skylight and security systems.

Thumbs down Re: My friend's skate shop just got robbed a 4th time!

Unfortunately, you can have all kinds of differents systems. If someone wants in they'll find a way.

In '94 they broke to a city run sk8park I paid to set-up and provided staffing for only to have the shop section broken into. It really sucked becausse we new who it was and they are still occasionally seen in skatemags pulling off their tricks.

The next night some guys (not the same ones) broke into my other location and cleaned it out as well. We know it wasn't the same crew. These guys we're eventually caught but the charges were dropped as the police made a deal to go after a bigger dealer as these were pushing smokables.

Also in '95 we also opened another sk8park in my hometown. It ran great for 4 months and I found a bigger spot. The 1st day in they broke in and took a few tool and such. Within 11 days they broke in 4 times. The last time I rented a truck, drove down and picked my ramps and moved them into our park in Ottawa.

I would get calls from kids asking why we closed and when tell them they say. Yeah it's too bad. I can't tell you who did it cuz they'd kick our a##.

So my hometown is still waiting for another indoor park.

The bars he wants go "inside" the glass... that or scissor doors.

Have him look up "Spring Gun" on the internet. Ho Ho.
