Wow, he had to have made multiple trips in and out of that garage in broad daylight to steal all these things. And a neighbor spoke with him besides. Again, these lowlifes feel that either there are no consequences for their actions anymore or not enough to keep them from doing these things. Nice going lawmakers!
