Any forensic photo specialists?

Someone with the right computer program could possibly get a glimpse of the genius through the side mirror.

I was able to zoom in and, using highly sophisticated proprietary software, and with helpful guidance of my CIB D/Sgt DW, enhance the image enough to possibly ID the driver.

Boy was I wrong. I guess what we see on CSI is real. Mad world isn't it!

I was once driving home and the car in front of me was probably a 1957 T-bird or something collectable like that.

At a curve in the road, a bunch of gas swashed out his vehicle. Clearly he had a full tank and no cap

I didn't know if he knew that or not and traffic got us seperated BUT, I did write down his license plate.

The next day, I wrote him a letter explaining that I wasn't a nut and what I saw. Was doing so, in case he DID have some kind of problem that he was otherwise unaware of...

I then took the letter (unsealed so they could read it) to the place where I go to get my license plates renewed... I basically asked her if she could read the letter to see the good intent of it, look his number up and send it to him FOR me (I already had postage on it)

Bottom line.... she simply gave me his name and address right on the spot

Although I was VERY surprised by this (and perhaps since 911, this logic has changed) she said that they don't give that info out over the phone but if someone comes in for it that they DID give that info out.

I sent it on to him and a couple days later, got a very gracious thank you phone call from him.

So, perhaps you can get his name/address same way...

anyone here have a friend 'Guido' that he can borrow for a day??

Thanks heywood. Maybe I can get you a guest appearance on the tv show medium. The two of you would be infallible. LOL. I still haven't heard back from the sheriffs dept. I'm guessing the deputy works nights or has the day off. Maybe just bigger fish to fry. I'm curios if he managed to steal anything. No call from neighbor yet either. I can't believe someone with such a nice truck would do it either. See what 0 down and 0% interest gets us. Faster crooks.

Well, here are my questions
1. Did you show the blown up picture to your neighbor?
2. Does he recognize the truck?
3. Did he give anyone permission or authority to be on his property or in a building/dwelling?
4. Is anything missing or damaged?

These are the questions that can bring the incident up to a felony. If the crime is serious enough, the locals can do what we calla "lawman" search with the partial plate. Looks like a Ford, probably F350 crew cab. That's alot of info to go with. Wish I caught a case like that.

I'd like to know what he was "looking" for? GIving up on the chase was the wise thing to do. Up here in NY we aren't allowed to chase anyone. We just follow closely

See what your neighbor has to say.

Neighbors on vacation till Sunday. He's not returning my voice mail nor is the deputy. Door was broken in but as far as any thing being stolen I couldn't tell. His garage is kind of messy. Hopefully the guy had just gotten in but, when do things ever work out so well.

I've often thought about what I would do if I ever came upon a situation like that and I realize that hindsight is always 20/20, but if you parked behind him so he couldn't move, do you think he would risk damage to his truck (if it was his) trying to get away?

Professional alarm systems don't sleep or eat poison but they sure scream LOUD !!
I just ordered a $100 + worth of updates

Would you really want to corner an armed meth head in a stolen F350?

The police more than likely will rattle the truck owner's cage, but it sounds like there aren't any witnesses to the damage to the garage... unless he left his wallet behind (inside!) he would just say "I stopped to check out the broken door.... some crazy came after me, I thought he was dangerous and escaped (thank goodness!)" or some such and no one can prove otherwise.

But, he is unlikely to return that neighborhood full of nosy people!

My neighbor has a circle drive so there was no way to block him in. But I don't think I'd want to corner him anyway. I attached a aerial photo of his place I found on the internet. His garage is at the top of the loop(north) and his house is at the left of the loop(west). There is also another house in front to the southeast. She's an older lady and wouldn't hear a bomb go off. Anyway I'm going to try to call deputy one more time tomorrow. After that it's my neighbors job. I'm putting to much time into this. Ya think?
