We have had 6 vehicle breakins to employee vehicles in the last month, mine included. We are located across the street from a bar, and in the general vicinity of many more, with drunk people walking next to our building coming from those bars during the late shift hours. Arguments and near-fights break out in the street directly in front of our building regularly. Theft is high, and there are lots of transients roaming around our building at all hours of the day, but more notably during the night and the early morning. Unlike the facilities in other cities, ours does not have security guards, and is very minimally staffed during the night time hours (such as when I work).
Sounds like 6th street in Austin, or that general area.
I would not be without my pistol under similar circumstances.
Don't ask, Don't tell.
