What a bummer! I hope that ring is recovered and returned to the rightful owner.

What kind of person risks being a felon by stealing what might be in someones car? I bet people feel really dumb when they're sitting in jail with a felony for a digital camera and an I-pod they probably sold for next to nothing, and a ring nobody would buy because it was obviously stolen. I sure don't leave anything of value in my car.
I didn't realize Emporia had such a big problem with burglaries and theft. We're above average in the burglary section. http://imgur.com/JIgZx.png

Shoot, I've been blamed for just about everything else anyway, but it doesn' t bother me in the slightest . Besides, what the heck is a Digital Camera and an I-pod anyway, I know what a Kodak Brownie Box Camera and a Pea-Pod is. Snicker, snicker, snicker, grin .
