Front window broken into ( but the bag was hidden under the seat ) so someone must have been watching me.

At Hammond Park. I was running in to pick up my daughter at gymnastics.  The lot was pretty full and there was a lot going on.

I think it would be a community service to alert residents to this. Other valuables WERE NOT taken out of my car or even the front seat area so this was  clearly a “planned grab and go.”  The police indicated to me that this had been going on.  

I was [foolish] to leave my bag but maybe if I’d read something in a local paper, I’d have thought twice.

Thanks!
