Angry Almost Stolen RX-8

I was talking to Abbid and he suggested that I post it. I never said anything to anyone about it until today.

It was back in November 2004. I was out late, approximately 11PM CST, in a Walgreens parking lot. My friend requested that I pick him up from the fair which was down the street. They were no longer allowing people to go into the fairgrounds, so I said I would meet him down the street in the Walgreens lot. The Walgreens was closed, and there were no other cars in sight. I parked facing the street so I could watch what was going on. There were a few cops pulling people over and other things.

All of a sudden, I see somebody approaching the back of the car. Then he walked up the passenger side of the car and around the front. He eventually stopped at the drivers side door. I am not sure if he knew I was in there, but he started talking. I didn't know what he was saying, but he had a crowbar in his hand and he started to get closer to the car. I put it in reverse and backed out. I left and went around the block.

When I came back, I parked in another part of the lot. Within seconds of pulling in, three cop cars came in along with and old beater. All of their lights were flashing and they made the people in the car get out and put their hands on the hood. I decided to leave even though my friend was on the way. I made it home safely.

Later on, I got a call from the police. They wanted to know if I would come pick my friend up, but I said no because it was past curfew. He took too long anyways. I waited for an hour and he didn't show. When he got there, the cops were there and he asked them if he could get a ride home. His house is about 20 miles from my house. The cop refused to take hm home, but offered to take him to someone closer. He eventually made it somewhere.
