Sorry that happened to you. Not that it's a fair comparison, but many years ago I came out of a store to find the door of my Golf caved in. It had to have been full on deliberate. I know it was just a Golf but it was my only car and had no body damage until then.

And last summer I met a friend for a smoothie. I left my helmet and leather jacket on my motorcycle, as it was in plain sight of us. When we went to leave I walked her across the parking lot, still within sight of the bike and maybe 100' away.
When I walked back towards the bike I was just starting to get that "hey, something is wrong here" feeling. A guy was standing nearby and said, "hey was that your jacket?"

A woman had been parked near by in a white van and she had stolen it. I was prepared to follow her but the direction she went forced me to stay where I was until I saw which way she turned. I got on the bike right then but she had disappeared. Never again will I leave my gear on the bike.
