...And the hits just keep on coming!

I have so many things to blog about that I can't find time to get them all in. Six flags trip, Memorial day Cubs game, nite out with my mom, Gavin concert, house party last night. But they are all getting trumped this morning for the kicker of all kicks in the ass stories!

So I was awakened at 7:20ish this morning, as I would never be out of bed at that time unless a serial killer was waking me...(oh or I was going to a cubs game or amusement park), by a huge car crash sound and an alarm going off. Sorry unable to give you much suspense but it was our Jeep that was parked in front of our house! Jim and I go flying out of bed and find our Grand Cherokee...Paid off in great condition would own it until we died Jeep Grand Cherokee...Smashed like no other in front of our house.
A KIA smashed so hard into the back it had to be going over 60 MPH on our little boulevard street! The driver drives the car away turns on a side street and into an alley and then starts running! Our neighbor was actually leaving for work and saw it all. She couldn't believe they were actually trying to drive away. Long story (even longer) short, it was a rental car. Woman in Dunlap had rented it and big surprise declined the coverage. The driver was not a woman but had the keys to the car. The driver had the actual keys to drive it. The detective is now going to figure out if the renter had given permission to the driver to drive it or if the keys were confiscated in any way. Sidebar...The renter (woman)...R U still with me...had placed some phone calls to the police station complaining about some harassing phone calls from an ex-friend who is a drug addict! Oh yeah it's good! I'll try to post some pics for all to enjoy!

That would only happen to the Cochran's or the Walker's. I really hope they're able to find out what happened. Poor Grand Jeep Cherokee:(

wow, i thought it was dramatic enough your jeep getting smashed (and it got SAH-MASHED!), but the drama accompanying the crash with the renter is even better.

i'm sorry about your car, i hope the cops catch the SOB.
