Stolen 2003 Toyota Tacoma on Maui

Ah man what a bummah

 

Too sad. Maui is changing.

 

Damn. They stripped that down quick! Sorry OP!

 

Sorry for the bad outcome of your truck man. What is up with Maui? Thats the second one I have seen in the past weeks stolen here on TW. I love Maui, but the crime getting worse.

 

Problems are occuring in a handful of very specific areas: tourist centers & surf hangouts such as Kihei, Lahaina, Paia, Honolua; a few spots up North and on the Hana Highway near Nahiku where there is a lot of meth use. These are areas where bad transplants prey on tourists and other transplants. Most local communities are very safe & quiet. People in remote areas know each other and mostly don't need locks on their doors and can leave keys in vehicles. Where I live in Kaupo, there is a community watch, and anyone acting predatory creates a buzz very quickly before it gets to bad action. Illegal night hunting by outsiders is the biggest issue.
