Thread: MUGGED IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE

Last night, my daughter and I and her boyfriend went to Manny's. We live 2 streets down from the sand bar. They wanted to stay and I wanted to go home so i drove home. They left about a half hour later to make the 2 block walk home (five minutes tops). A maroon buick pulled up as they reached the front of my house. They held him and put a knife to his throat. He had no money so they took his wallet.

I told him to take it out but forgot and had his DL, birth certificate, And SS card!

Never walk any distance at night! They were well dressed in a nice car! Cant they just sell chicklets?

How disheartening!

Are your daughter and her boyfriend ok? I can just think of how shaken up I would be if something like this happened to me. Did you contact the police?

Wow, how horrifying!

They must have followed them from the street up the hill.

I'm glad everyone is alright. I never take my wallet to Mexico, just id and a few dollars when I go out. I hide a credit card for emergencies.

I hope that's not a sign of things to come!

Yes,they are ok. Friday night, I told him to leave the wallet and stuff behind. Just take his DL for ID. He had put it all back in the wallet and forgot he had it for Saturday night. My daughter had about $35 bucks she forgot she had on her. When they got to the house, we jumped in the truck and found a cop. Then we drove all over Rocky Point looking for the car. As absurd as that sounds, they seem to always come back and are usually easy to find! I'll write a story about last year spring break below for those with a lot of time on there hands lol.

Last year spring break. The cars are parked all the way up the side streets up to our house which is 2 blocks up from the old Jills place now sand bar. We had no intention of going out!! We sat on the upstairs balcony with some drinks, turned out the porch light and just watched all the drunks stagger around.Some locals parked and put the hood up like they were having engine trouble. The smashed 3 car windows and went rummaged the cars.

We wanted to help but without giving away our house for them to retaliate later. I grabbed one of the ATV cops (who were more interested that night in giving young pretty girls rides) and told him what happened. A bunch of cops came. We standing in the street talking while I was trying to explain the car when the banditos came driving slowly by!!! I pointed them out and said "BANDITOS". they were prombly arrested. All in front of my house. I live in an action area for sure!

I feel sorry for my buddies who have nice, quiet houses in Las Conchos!! LOL

Gosh, what is going on?? I am sorry to hear about this...thank God they are both ok.

FiestaFrog....are you talking about the main street that runs back to Benito juarez from the Mirador area....and goes uphill (where the old Margaritavilla was located)....or was it one of the little side streets off that one???? I know that on weekends, a lot of the local teenagers hang out on the street by Manny's drinking beer from their vehicles. Always wondered if they caused trouble?

No, the street right in front of my casa. My house is on the corner of the street that the sandbar (old jills place) and the street that the bumaye. on that corner.

Thanks for the info....except for when Bumaye and the "other" place across the street has some action....that street is pretty deserted!

You're down from the new pizza place (can't remember the name....I'm terrible with names....).
