The Crazy World We Live in..

I recieved this from a friend of mine and he has asked me to share this with others. This is also happening in Clackamas County, OR. 

My friend just received this from her brother-in-law, a cop.

 

Thursday morning, I saw an infant car seat on the side of the road with a blanket draped over it. I did not stop, even though I had all kinds of thoughts running through my head. But when I got to my destination, I called the PD and they were going to check it out. This is what I was told...

"Several things to be aware of ... gangs and thieves, are now plotting different ways to get a person to "stop" their vehicle.  "There is a gang initiation reported by the local police department that gangs are placing a car seat by the road...with a fake baby in it...waiting for a woman, of course, to stop and check
on the baby. Note that the location of this car seat will usually be beside a wooded or grassy (field) area ...and the person - woman - will be dragged into the woods- beaten and raped- usually left for dead. DO NOT STOP. DIAL 9-1-1 AND REPORT WHAT YOU SAW!!!

"IF YOU ARE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND EGGS ARE THROWN AT YOUR WINDSHIELD. DO NOT TURN ON YOUR WIPERS AND DO NOT SPRAY ANY WATER ON IT BECAUSE EGGS MIXED WITH WATER BECOMES MILKY AND YOU'LL NOT BE ABLE TO SEE!!!! YOU ARE THEN FORCED TO STOP BESIDE THE ROAD AND BECOME A VICTIM OF THIEVES. THIS IS A NEW TECHNIQUE USED BY GANGS. PLEASE  INFORM YOUR FRIENDS AND RELATIVES. THESE ARE DESPERATE TIMES AND THESE UNSAVORY INDIVIDUALS WILL TAKE DESPERATE MEASURES TO GET WHAT THEY WANT."

Please talk to your loved ones about this. This is a new tactic used and I would hate for anyone to fall victim to this kind of crime.  Please BE SAFE AND NEVER STOP YOUR VEHICLE

Thank you so much for the 'Heads Up'. I never would have heard about this if you had not put it in a blog, I sure will pass this information on to my relatives.

It isn't a hoax they actually do this in major metropolitan areas!

Its just like if you flash your headlights at a gang members vehicle to remind them their lights are not on.. In Florida this is a well known no-no they then tail you and proceed with gang intiation process whatever it may be.
