Jan. 4th, 2006 11:02 amLast night after dinner, while watching the movie Four Brothers (which I did not get to see the end of it - can anyone let me know what happened?), our friend Kristen called in a panic. When she opened her door she noticed some wood splinters and it looked like someone had tried to break into their new apartment, so she was a bit worried to say the least. So we headed over to the apartment so I could check it out (which her fiance' Bert asked her to see if I would come over and check it out).
We dropped off the movie on the way over (it was due by 8:00) and when we got there I inspected the door. I didn't see any pry marks, any indention from a tool, just the splinters which were still attached to the door. The splinters were in between the dead bolt and the door knob, so if someone had tried to break in they must have been pretty stupid. I told her to notify the management that it appears someone tried to jimmy the lock and to ask them for a door knob that has a lock. I also recommended that when Bert comes home that they go to Lowes and get some wooden dowells to put in the windows and in the sliding glass door on the patio, just for her peace of mind.
The bottom line is that if someone wanted to get in there, they can find a way. Since Bert goes out of town on a weekly basis, we have given Kristen an open invite to sleep in our guest room if she ever feels the need. That's what friends are for, right? Now if I can just find out how that movie ended without having to rent it once more...
