Thanks in advance.

I almost got involved in a scrap theft by accident. I was trying to help a guy I didn't know find rope to tie down some scrap on the back of a car.

He was the friend of some of my brother's tenants. Anyway, a few hours later the police busted him for stealing the metal from another scrapper! They ended up not pressing charges but it made me aware of the need to be much more careful.
