Pretty pathetic people can do this these days... probably disconnected the batteries somehow picked lock and were able to get it out of park somehow and push it to whatever they towed it with... people these days make me sic (I misspelled on purpose)

Where was the Jeep taken from (city)?
Was it a theft or a repo?

I don’t think it’s that simple in this case. If you look the radio is on and interior lights. The Jeep went into ACC mode. Probably pushed it and started it down the street

First of all, that’s a JK, not a JL. Totally different ignition system and electronics than a JL/JT. Probably popped the column and bypassed the keyed ignition switch. They still require a chip key, so it will crank (and go into neutral) but won’t run.

I'm curious as heck if the owner of the stolen vehicle had the security gateway bypassed. (Bypass module) Knowing this would help me speculate more on what transpired..

JKs don't have SGW, that on 2018+ JL/JT

Got to think they cloned the key, but they'd have to have been within range of your key. I know to do that they assume you put your keys near the interior garage door and try to get close to that.

You can shoot someone for stealing your shit in Cali?
In Ohio, you cannot shoot someone for theft. Only if your life, or the life of someone else, is threatened.
We don't even joke about it.

You can't in CA either, and you'd be hard pressed convincing anyone that this was in defense of life.
