JOSÉ LUIS: CAR ROBBERY

Once, while stopping at a traffic light, an old pick-up truck bumped slightly against the rear of my car. When I got out of the car to see if any damage had been done, one of the pick-up passengers aggressively and nervously pointed a gun at me, took my wallet and wristwatch, and then stole my car away. The other assailant ran away driving the pick-up.

The only thing left for me to do was stare at them as they sped farther away.

José Luis, December 2006, Naucalpan, Estado de México. Stolen car: Jetta 2006.
