Stolen Helmet, Bridge day
Hey guys I had a military style protec stolen from the hotel at bridge day. It is tan with rail system and velcro for patches. Had a us flag and blood group patch attached. I'm not fussed about the loss as my company paid for it, But let it be known that this sort of behavior will not be tolerated, especially in this sport. If you asked I would have given it to you you prick. Cheers guys stay Thirsty

Re: [andrew11] Stolen Helmet, Bridge day
Lots of things are missing this year (more than we're used to). I was going to mention all the lost and found stuff in the final BD email, but this forum might get additional exposure. I am hoping that jumpers might have accidentally picked things up like your helmet, but I'm also wondering if we had a thief this year. Missing so far:

1) Donald Cripp's rental rig - It's a black and neon orange DP5 rig, Canopy is a jade (teal) and red Dagger 266. The stash bag actually has a front panel of black tie dye on slate blue. Rig was left in the LZ by my crew.
2) Samsung Galaxy Note 2 in a black otterbox with an Apex and SCUBA flag stickers on the back is missing. It's believed to have been left on a bench out front while waiting for the taxi.
3) One Red Bull cooler and a bunch of Red Bull were taken from the exit point around 3:30pm on BD.
4) A set of keys were lost by Jan Care at the exit point on BD.
5) Local douche-bags stole the battery, wiring harness, battery box lid, and other fasteners out of my Budget 24' long rental truck. If dedicated BD staffers like Nate Varnes and John McDonald didn't help out on Friday night, we were all jumping from the railing at BD. They got it running just in time.

Now the good news. Found at the exit point or LZ:
1) Several pairs of glasses
2) Two helmets (not the one listed in this thread)
3) Plenty of wet clothes
4) Shoes
5) Stash bag
6) Other misc. items

Contact me with a description to claim the above. Thanks.
