      That was it exactly. The guys that did it sawed through portions of the engine to get it.

      I tried to be mad, but it's like, people are so desperate that it's only a symptom of deeper problems. I had to file a police report for insurance and felt gross the whole time.

      I didn't expect them to get close to finding it or doing anything close to helpful, but it made me afraid of what the cops would do in my area if they had issues like mine as an excuse to harass people.

      Thank you, comrade. I'm glad people here are like you and get situations like this.
