Headlight Stolen

hey guys, ive havent been able to get online since i moved to GP and dont have internet in my apt and so ill just start...well this is what happend today, i got off of school earl and came to my home town, i had a dentist appointment at 3 today, so i went to my appointment, came out an hour later and drove home...my mom was going to go pick up my neice from daycare and was going to take my truck...well she ended up not taking my truck and i wondered why....she came back and asked me " how did your headlight fall out?" i was like wtf, so i went outside and saw that i was missing one headlight and the bulb was gone as well...my first thought was that it fell off but than I thought, how the hell would it fall out. i re-examined and saw that part of where the headlight goes into was broken...right than and there i knew i had just been jacked... im so pissed that someone stole one of my headlights in my calm hometown. i thought that i would have been jacked in GP way before i would be jacked in my little hometown...So here is what i think went down...The person was trying to steal both of them and saw me coming out and ran off with what he/she had or it could have been someone that doesnt like me...either way ******* U who ever it was

No, you've gotta pop the hood in order to release the latches on the light... It's a pain the *** to do.

well if you wouldn't have left your headlights out in the wide open, they wouldn't have been stolen... didn't your mom teach you better!
