I just replaced a ladder recently because someone stole it from in front of the house I was inspecting. Came out to get it to go in the attic, gone.

The ladder I replaced it with was temporarily stolen from in front of a Town Home. Upper class place. I stepped inside and hit the button for the garage door in the rear so when I came around I would just come in there. I was inside for maybe 2 or 3 minutes, gone. I told the builder on the project (building more units) and gave him my card. 2 days later I got a call to pick up my ladder. I had tucked it into an alcove and one could barely see it.
