Off The Bike Again!

Glad 2007 is ending. The good news: I surprised a group of auto burglars and cought three of them. The bad news: The one who got away (temporarily) cheap shotted me with a bat.

Broken inferior eye socket, fractured nose, scratched cornea. The three I caught ratted out their buddy. Court time!!! Had my nose broken and reset on Friday.

Wow man, bummed to see you got hurt but glad to hear you got em. Are you a police officer or private security? I would hope that if your a cop that your city would give you a commendation for that or at least a fun desk job to do while you recover. Take care and I hope it doesn't hurt too much.

Happy New Year

Sorry to hear about the injury. I hope the guy funds a new bike or something, on top of your medical expenses! Heal quickly.

Not a Cop

Nope, I was awoken at 5am to the sound of glass breaking. Saw the car leaving, search of the city and I found'em.

How did you get three crooks to stick around after taking a bat to the face?(need more details, it's hard to rubber neck from a PC) I'm glad you caught them and get well.
