State College is a small town, it is also a university town.
Not exactly your high crime area.
So, statistically, the scum who took the Munchkins' slide from our front yard after the game on saturday night were probably a multiplet of cheerfully inebriated male students.
Well, congratulations, you made a two year old very sad.
Interesting thing is: we called it in to the police, mainly so if it were found we would get it returned.
Officer on duty has young kids, as it turns out, very empathetic and intense man.
Also not very busy, with thanksgiving week coming town is half empty.
So he is now patrolling looking for a small blue and red slide, ready to make an arrest.
He really wants to make an arrest.

I hope he catches them.
Heh, what's the closest frat house? Can anyone say probable cause? Oh wait, I just did...
Best wishes for justice. It is hard to imagine how the 2-year old must feel. I suffered a theft last Christmas Eve. Thanks to alert citizens, the perp was caught and DEPORTED. At least you have an excuse to get someone a new slide.
Shannon grew up in State College, and whenever she is telling anyone about what it was like growing up in this town, she mentions how when she lived near a fraternity house they used to "borrow" her little red wagon to hold their hibachi while they grilled. She at least knew where to find it and could take it back whenever it disappeared. Good luck finding the slide!
