Title says it all, I bought my Gopro and the very first day I used it to film myself surfing and fishing, two scumbags tried stealing my surfboard that I left within my view so I could keep an eye on it. Was able to use the evidence to have the crooks caught by the police. Deal PD did an amazing job handling the situation.

 

Here's the link to the video I posted as evidence for the cops. Just wanted to raise awareness about this problem and give a heads up if you see these guys at your beach. They have done it before; they had a getaway car running and waiting for them at the top of the hill and were ready to escape.

 

I don't want to cause any negativity or problems, just want to make you guys aware. This is the first time I left my board on the beach unattended and it was stolen within 15 minutes.

Nice job. This might convince me to go out and get a GoPro.

 

What is the follow up from the Deal PD? They nail these guys?

 

caught them a few miles away and arrested them for theft

You landed one on the puke carrying your board? Good for you. What could the other guy possibly say in their defense?

 

yeah, didnt wanna get violent, there were families and kids yards away, although nobody wanted to help. I realized the cam was running and just decided to try and get a confession, thats what happened during the conversation. Audio was fine until I uploaded it to youtube, no idea what happened to the sound.

I was planning on swinging but when I saw the families nearby and realized the cam was on my head I flipped a switch. The dialogue was pretty calm, just me putting down his BS excuses and making him admit he was stealing. Then told him he's being recorded and I'm calling the police. That's when they ran.

 

They blew threw a stop sign going 60mph, coulda killed someone on ocean ave
