Figured I post on Beyond to warn others. Last week there was an attempt to steal the wheels off of my friend's GLA in an underground parkade in a residential tower. Thankfully my friend caught him in the act, chased him off, and was able to snap a pic of their plate. Unfortunately according to the police, since the person did not actually steal anything they can't charge them with anything except maybe trespassing assuming that was their car they used. So apparently if you attempt to steal something its okay?
The person parks at the main parkade entrance and waits for someone to come out or for someone to get frustrated behind them and open the gate then does the same process to get past the second parking gate. The person was driving a grey MK5 GTI with tinted windows (plate CBL-8784) was caucasian male, 5'10 or so, looked mid-20s, and had dreads past his shoulders. The passenger was a petite African-american female wearing a black puffy jacket with black fur. There have been several vehicle break-ins in the parkade in the similar timeframe, wondering if this attempt is connected or not.
Keep an eye out for people trying to tailgate into your parkade and get some wheel locks. Hopefully this can prevent some people from getting their wheels jacked.
