The owner of the vehicle told police the suspect stated he wanted to buy the car from an ad the victim placed on Craigslist. The suspect, described as a 5-foot-8-inch-tall black male in his late teens or early 20s with scars on his left shoulder and bicep and a Milwaukee Brewer glove tattoo on his left arm, was accompanied by an unknown number of people inside a light green or blue Mazda 3 with dark tinted windows.

straight6pwr Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 super shitty. you have to go into a craigslist deal assuming the worst these days. meet at a very public place, do not bring your girlfriend/wife/kids (why do people do that?), and have your wits about you.

patsbimmer1 Posted June 30, 2015 Report Share Posted June 30, 2015 Well that's really shitty. I always make a point to tell a few people where and when I am meeting someone just in case something happened. I usually try and meet somewhere like a gas station or near a police department or community building where police would be. I hope they catch these scum bags! Although, history tells me they'd get a slap on the wrist and get right at it shortly after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc43089 Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Kindof like our welcome to the neighborhood. A week after we moved in someone broke into the garage and stole my road bike and a bunch of tools. I miss out old neighborhood where there was no need to lock anything and the worst that might happen is a drunk college student wanders in to sleep on the couch.

natedog7700 Posted July 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Well the police found the car a week later in North Milwaukee. One witness said he saw it crash into a parked car and 4 black guys ran off. I was talking to the detective about this case, and he said these guys steal these cars, and tint the windows right away. So that way when the cops pull up they cant see anything inside, and when they flip on the red and blues they just take off. He told me they rarely chase these vehicles anymore because its not worth the risk when it usually comes to a bad ending for either side. So basically there is little to no hope in catching these guys or anyone like them so keep that in mind when doing craigslist deals! natedog7700 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B C Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 By "North Milwaukee" surely you meant "North Shore" since only distinguished gentlemen drive BMWs. Ugh. What a bunch of no-talent assclowns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris3 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Given the pattern it wouldn't be too hard to do a CL bait operation. Even just fake the ad with details and pics and see who shows up to look at the car. B C 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMart Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 A good friend of mine is a Milwaukee detective. He asked me the other day "Ever hear of someone tinting the windows on their rental car?" I couldn't think of a reason why they would... It is AGAINST CODE in Milwaukee to pursue or call ahead for anything (maybe other than murder). So drug dealers get a rental car for a month, tint the windows, then turn them in for another to stay below the radar. As mentioned below if you get pulled over in Milwaukee, wait for the cop to get out of the car and book it, they cannot and will not chase you. FUCK THAT Well the police found the car a week later in North Milwaukee. One witness said he saw it crash into a parked car and 4 black guys ran off. I was talking to the detective about this case, and he said these guys steal these cars, and tint the windows right away.
