Update: Thanks for all the pictures and all that, after some new information and being unable to identify anybody in the Genesis pics I'm almost positive it was local kids stealing stuff, which is a relief. I believe we have enough information to identify them with and through some degree of persistence we have finally gained the cooperation of the police department down there. A guy also has a lot of our stuff that the kids dumped, so things are looking relatively positive at this point. I don't think there's anything left that you guys can help me out with unless somebody randomly snapped a picture of a group of kids on the edge of the fairgrounds without controllers, which seems unlikely. Again, thanks for the help.
As a lot of people probably know (since they made an announcement Sunday), me and my friends had our car broken into at Genesis and had a hell of a lot of stuff stolen from us. I estimate my personal loss to be at about $989, probably more since I think I'm forgetting a number of the DS games I had in my backpack. The thing is, the kids who stole my stuff were stupid enough to use my credit card at a local McDonalds, so I got to see security footage of all of them. They were at the McDonalds by the Ramada on Sunday between 6:40 and 6:45.
It was a group of about 5 kids, around age 16. The one who had my credit card and initially used it was a black kid in a plaid shirt with a white undershirt. He was with another fat black kid in a plain white shirt and a white kid with poofy hair. There were 2-3 other kids who I didn't really get to see too well. I know my descriptions suck, but I have a good feeling that I'll be able to recognise them if I see good pictures of them.
WHAT I NEED YOU TO DO: Post any and all pictures taken at or around Genesis here in this thread, especially pictures taken on Sunday. There is a good chance they are local to Antioch, but they are probably also smashers since they left a cube w/ melee and portable lcd screen in the car. Also tell all your friends who might have pics/info about this. Thanks a lot.
If anybody has any questions about this or thinks they might know something, feel free to ask. Also, if a mod could sticky this topic that'd be sweet. DISREGARD THIS, I SU... err.. well, just disregard it since that's no longer relevant but I don't want to change the original message.
