My Rights As An American Report post Posted January 27, 2019 On our way to youth javelina hunt and got up to 6a. Went to grab my backpack to find it was stolen from the truck while eating dinner at Carl's Jr at I17 and Pinnacle Peak or Happy Valley. Was only place we stopped so it had to happen there. Was a Horn Hunter pack with Vortex Kaibabs, GPS, tags, license, slik tripod that I can pick out of a lineup due to an accident. Really pissed right now. Sitting in Cottonwood and more cannot take my daughter tomorrow. Please keep an eye out. Really pissed. Have my daughter, her friend and my son with me and hunt is now ruined due to some a-hole thief. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Viper Report post Posted January 27, 2019 That really sucks. Sometimes, people suck. You could still hunt...just with a dark cloud over it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My Rights As An American Report post Posted January 27, 2019 This site is awesome. Thank you all for the incredible offers to help!!! SHOCKING TWIST UPDATE: Called the store to see if they had cameras rolling, and manager said there was a homeless guy with my pack in the store! He came back in to the same store. He left it and walked away. Returned 45 minutes later and left a full page handwritten apology along with a few items he had stolen from the bag. Said he felt bad and was not a thief. Other than a few things out of place, all was still there! Just rushed down to there from Cottonwood and back. Stunned. Just. Stunned. All still there, even unopened food and snacks. This NEVER happens. Nobody ever gets their stolen items back. Maybe a little positive karma after all I have been through these last few years? Maybe I need to see it as a sign or something. Thank you all for the amazing offers of help. The hunt is back on and the kids are so excited again! 22 1 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
