text: i got my purse stolen today.....? i filed a police report, and they have the guy who stole it on survelance, but it doesnt seem like they will catch him, and i had my cell phone, money, and my drivers license in it. is there any way i can get my stuff back, or at least money back for what was stolen? do you think the guy who stole it will come to my house since he has my address now? i am very scared that he will. in most cases,where purses are taken , they want what is easy to take....cash. they then throw your purse in the ditch or dumpster to get it out of their possession. since you had a cell phone it may have been used, need to have service cut off. as for you personal items you should contact each one and advise of theft. you should live a little wiser due to the fact you are worried about someone coming to your home, although it doesn't usually happen. check with your homeowners insurance, theft is sometimes covered. unless someone knows the suspect by his video picture,i doubt he will be caught.
