His insurance company will probably total it and pay him off. That's what insurance is for.

Yes, it was spike strips. And the coach is riddled with bullet holes as the sheriff and CHP shot out windows. It was the spikes that finally got him to stop in Plymouth.

Is it just me or are thieves getting stupider by the minute?
Stealing a 40+ft MH in broad daylight? :S

We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned,

Not unusual today with modern very small, light cameras and a camera stick. If the reporter lived up in the Gold Country, she didn't have wait for a camera person to arrive from far away.
Yep, they're called "one man bands", and most stations now have them with likely more to follow as contracts expire and are rewritten or renewed. Ain't pretty but cheap

Wow! Hope the owner has good insurance. Flattened tires, broken windows. I can see a lot of $$$$ to get it fixed right again! Ugg. It would be interesting to know what the thief was thinking??


there was a SOLD sign in the windshield. I suspect the dealer will be on the hook for this. and the reporter...must not have a lot of help at that station...did anyone notice she was handling the camera as well? a stand-up selfie!
