    Someone threw my dock deicer into lake

    I talked with a neighbor and have an answer. The deicer was fine the whole winter and neighbor thinks the boat waves in spring lifted it up out of the water when he left for Florida in April. Ice was 90 percent melted when he left. Nobody was seen on the dock in winter. I will still put a...

    Someone threw my dock deicer into lake

    Can Ford Cars (Edge) be hijacked without the key?

    Someone reported that a gang of hijackers went to a parking garage and demanded cars. Right off Lake Shore Drive. But they got scared away. Another person had their car hijacked while she was filling up at a gas station. They drove the car off while it was being fueled.
