In the late 80s, he was living in Denver, Colorado.

He had a construction firm and did building repairs for a living.

And he stored all of his equipment and tools in a warehouse in a non-residential part of town.

So everything you needed to do your job was in that warehouse?

One day, Phil decided to take a road trip into the mountains.

When you walked in, what did you see?

What did you do when you saw that all of your things were missing?

Were you surprised that it happened again?

Phil says he'd set up an alarm that would call 911 when it was tripped.

But he says whoever was breaking in somehow knew to turn off the electricity.

He says that each time he saw that there had been a break-in, he called the police and made a report.

Eventually, he was calling them so much that they asked him to just mail them a list of the items that were stolen.

A columnist at the Denver Post wrote an article about all the robberies.

And some readers felt so bad for Phil Conahan that they sent him money and replacement tools.

It didn't take long, though, for those donated tools to be stolen, too.

Phil Conahan says that he had no idea who was doing this.

Were you worried about it shooting the wrong person and someone who wasn't doing anything wrong might get hurt?

How did you hear that something had happened?

Did the police tell you anything?

What did you learn had happened?
