You use your fence and gate to protect your home and some guy up and grabs
it to cash in.
Apparently, in New York, finding the right gate is
the gateway to riches.
you can get $500, if you sell it back to its owner.
If you ask me, the homeowners cries of anguish are
over-wrought.
xD AHAhhhaahahAHAHAhaahahah

NEW YORK (CBS 2) — Fences are supposed to help protect your home, but now they’re being targeted by crooks.
CBS 2’s Emily Smith has the exclusive story on a new wave of crime involving some Brooklyn homeowners’ wrought iron fences.
They are a signature of many neighborhoods, most of them erected in the 1800s. So, residents along these tree-lined streets are outraged that someone has been stealing their wrought iron gates.
“We got back from a weekend away and we noticed they were gone,” Fort Greene resident Van Hanos said.
“It’s disturbing to find somebody has taken that from us,” Fort Greene’s Wayne Tripp added.
At least six gates have been stolen on Vanderbilt Avenue in Fort Greene over the past two weeks and another three within an eight-block radius, according to police. Tripp said his iron fence disappeared last week, calling it the most prized feature of his $2 million home.
“The gate was part of our property, part of the legacy of this block being historic,” Tripp said.
