Wash. burglary victim drives off in thieves' van

BELLEVUE, Wash. (AP) -- A man in Washington state made sure a pair of burglars didn't get away with his three flat-screen televisions - he moved their getaway car.

Patrick Rosario was in the basement of his Bellevue home on Tuesday when he heard the burglars upstairs.

The Seattle Times says the 32-year-old Rosario, who had been laid off from his job as a Washington Mutual manager, called 911 while he sneaked out of the house.

He saw a white van sitting in front of his house with the motor running and the keys in the ignition, and he got in and drove it to a friend's house.

Police say the burglars left the televisions, a laptop computer and a jewelry box by the door and took off on foot.

The sheriff's office said no arrests had been made.

I would love to have been there to see the look on the faces of the BGs when they saw the van gone.

I wonder if they reported it stolen.

Maybe non-victim found something of value in the van to compensate him for his trouble.

When will folks learn. 

Leaving the keys in the ignition is just asking for your vehicle to be stolen =)))

Probably voided the insurance claim also.
