$1000.00 Reward leading to Info/Recovery of 2 Stolen Sleds

My Neighbor has suffered an immense loss.

Garage was entered by busting the lock

2 Sleds were stolen

Red & yellow - 2001 mxzx 800

Black & grey - 2005 machz 1000

These SLIME criminals may be driving them on the lake or trying to sell via one of the Buy/Sell website's. If you should happen across someone trying to sell the sled(s) or if you see either on the lake, pm me asap and call the police. I will have cowling numbers up by tomorrow morning.

There is No Insurance involement - he just carried liability

Pic's - if possible transfer to your P/cell phone

Thank you for keeping your eyes and ears open.

Really sorry to hear about this, happens up here all the time, rarely is anyone ever caught. Seems in the same night they are joy rided and burned in a pit, or stripped immediately and the parts are all shipped to be sold off.

I hope they find them.

I'm going out to take better pictures of my sled and bike. You never know when crap is going to happen."

If they were stolen from his garage wouldnt his home insurance cover it?

Good Question Jeff. When I spoke to my Neighbor Jamie, he implied no insurance. I'll speak to him again - (perhaps he needs a lawyer to deal with his Ins carrier).

As far as Pic's go - yes take Pic's of everything you own. Also mark your equipment i.e. motor in the event someone does steal and strip for sale.
On another note - this is the 3rd sled stolen in the past week along with 3 Huts. All from Lake Simcoe area. These criminals are out there - I live just off the lake and traffic is heavier after midnight -vehicles just going up and down. I installed a 30 day loop camera - if I become a victim, I'll have something to take to the police.

Usually motor vehicles aren't covered by home insurance. I know how your buddy feels. I had one stolen out of my driveway years ago. Sitting in a trailer middle of the day. Insurance covered the sled but I did not have theft coverage on the trailer. Cops told me that the sled likely went straight to Quebec where they get torn down for parts.

Thieves are everywhere. Left the house about 6:45 this morning, by 9 some scum stole my snowblower from the side of the house.

That stinks! Cruise the neighborhood next snowfall, see who has a nicely snowblown driveway that didn't before :)

I know my home insurance covers anything stolen out of my truck - aka, if the sled is in the back of my truck and is taken. I would assume garage would work in a similar fashion?

I will keep my eye out on Simcoe and surrounding area. Best of luck.

I live in Brechin so I'll keep an eye out for them.

You should be able to find the thieves and chop there hands off! I feel your buddies pain, just had my work truck broken into on Thursday. Cleared out ever single tool, with the total of over 5 grand. Insurance is covering the loss, but still am on the search for the piece of crap that took them. If I find him, he will be paying one way or the other for the two days of lost work insurance won't cover.

yes, we have had some guy coming up our driveway checking to see if vehicles are locked or not, have seen his footprints in the snow about 3 times already this winter, almost like he walks our street from the corner up one side and down the other as you can see his tracks in and out of everyones driveway on the street ( dead end street ) have the trail cam set up, so hope to get a good enough picture to give to the police. would love to be sitting in a chair under our tree to catch him but a little chilly for that.

lovely world we live in today.....

Had my Escape entered in the summer....Got home from work and the wife called me in before I locked the doors.
My fault for leaving them open but car was empty in the morning. Kinda made me wonder how often they come around
as I lock my doors religiously....or better yet park it in the garage....one day I mess up and in they go.
Police told me they call these kids' "Handle flippers"...as they run up and down the street quickly just flipping the handles until they find one open.

Prikks took my "Fishing camera" with over 1300 pics. Luckily, most were downloaded to the computer.
Sorry for your sled loss.
