The Rusty Old Car That Was Stolen Twice 
Have you ever had a rusty old car that was stolen twice? Read 
on to find out more. 
It happened in our driveway. The first time it was stolen, I was 
at school. The second time I was at camp. I did not get to see how it 
happened. The first time it was stolen was in April. The weather 
was mildly warm. It was the middle of the day and the sun was 
shining. The second time the weather and the time of day were the 
same as the first time except this time it was in the middle of August. 
The man who stole the car was a young white male. 
One day our neighbor phoned my parents and asked if we let 
somebody borrow my mom's old rusty car because someone was 
driving away with it. My parents said no. We figured the car was 
stolen and called the police and they made a report. I thought to 
myself, “ The guy who stole the car is stupid.” Half of me was upset 
the car was stolen and the other half kind of didn't care that the car 
was stolen. A few weeks later our neighbor called us and told us he 
found our car. It was in his parking lot at his apartment. The person 
who stole the car left some stuff in the car so he was probably 
planning to come back to get the car. We got our car back. My dad 
bought a club for the steering wheel. We were extremely happy we 
got the car back. 
After a while my mom stopped using the club and the guy 
swiped the car again. Some time later my parents and I were at 
home. 
“Why did the guy take the car?" I asked my dad. 
“I don't know, maybe the person wanted a ride,” My dad replied. 
“This guy is a real idiot," I said. 
“Yes, yes he is,” dad said. 
By now I was annoyed. I hoped the guy got caught and 
punished. We got a new car for my mom. A few weeks later the 
police called on 10/23/16 at 2:00 in the morning. They said they 
found a woman illegally driving our car. The woman said the guy let 
her borrow the car for a while. The car was trashed. It smelled like 
an ashtray, there was a dent in the front of the car, she left some stuff 
in the car, and she changed one of the wheels. I felt annoyed, angry, 
and upset. “I hope the guy gets punished.” I thought to myself. At 
least we got the car back and caught the people who took the car. 
So that was my funny family story, I hope you found 
it as funny and bizarre as we did. If you liked it I have another funny 
story about the time I fell into a pool, but that's for another time. 
Thanks for reading.
