November 11, 2001 -- A Long Island fire department's vehicle was stolen yesterday - and the FBI is keeping a close watch in the wake of the Sept. 11 terror attacks, officials said.

The red 1994 Ford Explorer disappeared from the driveway of a Baldwin Fire Department's supervisors' home sometime between 4 and 6 a.m.

Lost dog in Ronkonkoma. All points alert.

They're going to fly a Ford Explorer into a skyscraper?

[MistyCA]

Was the dog white with black spots?

[Mr. Snrub]

i bet it was one of those Baldwin brothers, they're all from L.I.

kattracks still in the lead!!!

Perfect vehicle for a truck bomb.

LOL! Superb :)

[Lion's Cub]

Hope it has satellite tracking that can't be turned off :)

Maybe all official vehicles need to have that system that can turn the vehicle off when it is stolen...

Whatever happened to that airliner de-icer that was stolen from a body shop in New Jersy? I read about it in the NY Post about a month ago. Anybody know anything about this?

"... Perfect vehicle for a truck bomb."

Exactly.

Not likely to be questioned if parked close to a mall, or Fed. building.

Fire emergency vehicle, aircraft de-icer, the missing government crop duster from Florida, American Airline pilots uniforms from a hotel room in Italy, military BDUs from a dry cleaners in Texas, passkey to cockpit, tractor trailer rig in Illinois (trailer found, truck still at large)--what other unusual things been reported stolen in recent weeks?

what other unusual things been reported stolen in recent weeks?

I can't find my spare set of keys to my Mitsubishi. Is it possible that they may take my car in the future to use as sort of a recon vehicle? Also I do not think that a thread can be labeled as an "official" anthrax thread until the word anthrax is mentioned. I am mentioning it now in order that this thread may be vailidated as "official." ;)

Whatever happened to the toothpaste and women's panties that were stolen from K-Mart in New Jersey. I read about it in a local newspaper I found at the donut shop in Fort Lee about a month ago.

A telephone conversation between a blonde and the Fire Department:

(ring, ring)

Fire Department Dispatcher: "Fire Department."

Blonde: "Help, help, my house is on fire! Send help!"

Dispatcher: "How do we get there?"

Blonde: "Duhhhh! Big red truck!"

Have you hugged your Ryder truck lately ?

Don't forget the boat disguised as a Coast Guard vessel in WV near the nuclear and chemical plants.

I'm sure that was sent to Greenland.
