Two guys tried to break in to our house last night even though they knew we where home. My wife and kids where sleeping but I heard them and got up. I called the police and they where arrested 10 minutes later. The investigators just came back now and tol...
I am so sorry to hear this. And appalled at the poor and unsafe response from the system. Stay vigilant and safe. It is possible you were targeted….. BW, Chi Kai
... do you have space for a dog or two, and a back to base alarm system? Not a perfect solution, but better than nothing. Stay safe and hope this is the last time something like this happens to you.
Frightening experience for you and your family. If possible take practical steps to visibly strengthen your home security with expert advice. It will deter a repeat incident and make your family feel safer after this incident. Sorry to hear that this has ...
If they have been targeting you, one of the possibilities is that they knew something very valuable in your house, maybe your watches. I assume that you never disclose your colllection on social media with your address or real identity...then the informat...
First of all, glad to hear you and your family are safe. Also surprised and scared for you to hear that they broke in in-spite of you being home. Finally sorry to hear about the distressing effect of suspects being released. Regarding safety, heard once f...
Thank goodness you managed to alert the police but I am not sure why the criminals were released so quickly. It might be an idea to invest in a good alarm system for your home, one that connects to a central station or a police station.
This is quite common too in Australia. The police like to ask if one has insurance, after a break-in. Once, a relative had her house broken into. It was harrowing. The police were not too concerned about it, instead asking if she had insurance. The soluti...
I am so sorry you had to go through that. I can't believe the perpetrators are getting let go, quite shocking to be honest. Hope you and your family get some peace of mind and start feeling safe again.
Hi Christian, I am sorry to hear about your experience. This is one thing that one could very much do without. Good to hear that you and your family are OK, even though the mental side of things may linger for a while. And it makes all of us reconsider ou...
Thankfully you and your family were not physically harmed. I share your frustration especially with the response from the justice system. I wish you a swift and thorough recovery on the mental side of things.
When you deal with the bureaucracy and paperwork, stop and assess what happened and why. Was it truly random? Was it a six standard deviation event? What is the likelihood it might happen again? Situations like this make the homeowner feel violated. It's ...

Glad everyone is safe, Christian. This kind of stuff is happening everywhere and perpetrators are getting away with no punishment to speak of. Hang in there and take care.
Do I understand correctly that nobody actually set foot inside the house? If so, I guess that will make processing this for you and your family (much) easier. What makes you certain they knew you were home? (When I read something like this, that's a rare ...
I cannot imagine the “violation” you must be feeling to have this occur while you and your family are inside at the time. I am happy the police came quickly and made the arrest but very dismayed to hear they will set the culprits free. Perhaps you will th...
I did not expect this kind of reaction and overwelming support. You guys are the best. A few days ago I was ready to get rid of everything of value, including watches, as expressed in this thread. Having your home attacked while being at home crosses some...
