I still can't believe it happened. I drove a pretty busted up 2011 Ford Econoline Van. It's huge and ugly with litteral holes in it. I don't know why anyone would want it, but maybe the large size stood or or something.
I was visiting my sister for a little get together to celebrate a friend's birthday party. It started off like any other day. We had fun, played games, etc. When we went out to eat at around 6ish I saw it on the corner of my eye. I think I saw it when we came back at 7 too. The party ran long and before we knew it it was around 1:30 am. I turned the corner of the building and my car wasn't there. My first reaction was that I took a wrong turn somewhere. But that couldn't be right, it was only a 2 minute walk from where I parked to the building.
But a lot can happen in 6 hours. I searched around in the cold for about 20-30 minutes, then called the police and checked to see if it was towed. The police couldn't find it in the records so a report was filed.
A rundown: Searched the area. Called 311 to check for towing. Filed a police report.
Plan to do: Call insurance company. Call DMV? Register the theft on websites like stolencar.com. Look on the internet? Search Craiglist or something?
This is the car I use for work. It had all my tools and stuff in it and I can't begin to calculate the net loss. My financial situation fucked and I don't know how to operate now.
I'm a bit shaken up. Is there anything I missed or need to know? Do you guys have any advice? If there's any critical action I need to take within the first few hours or etc...
