I walked in on someone robbing my apartment 4 years back, it was really surreal. He had two bags of stuff packed up and was just unplugging my brand new imac as I pushed upon my door, which was slightly ajar.
He claimed to be an electrician and had a master key for the building, but I wasn't convinced as he was around 22 years old and wearing baggy hip hop gear from head to toe.
I followed him to the elevator and asked him why my playstation was in his backpack, to which he replied "This is my gear mothafucka, get inside and I'll show you"
As I didn't want to get into a close-quarters melee with someone who may have been armed, I let the elevator door close, at which point I booked it down 12 flights of stairs, popped out the alley exist, and confronted him at the front door just as he was leaving.
I said "Motherfucker gimme my shit" which drew the attention of some passerbys. He dropped the gear and yelled "I'm from Floreedaa boy, I'll whoop you" and we stood face to face, about to throw down when I young girl, 17 perhaps, came out of nowhere and grabbed him by the hand, the two then took off running.
Just then the building manager came running out and said "Is that him???" all frantic like. I said "Who?" She said "The guy who has been robbing the building for the past two weeks." I said "WHAT THE FUCK?"
I called the cops and myself and the building manager, a small Filipino lady, began pursuit. We ran 3 blocks uphill at full blast as I told the fuzz what was up.
But we'd already lost him, or so I thought. The lady and I split, each running down different streets, when I saw the guy getting into a taxi. I ran up, preparing myself for a full blast bodycheck when two cop cars swerved around the corner and blocked him in.
I believe he ended up copping a plea and was sent back to Florida.
