I yelled out really loudly and he ran back to the waiting car and they took off. When I got downstairs, I found that he had taken some sort of tool and completely destroyed the locking mechanism of my car. SMH

    I don't know if they exist, but a personal wheel boot might slow a thief down enough so they don't want to bother. It would be a hassle putting it on & taking it off but it beats filing a claim on stolen and/or stripped car. Of course if you're elderly or have mobility issues, it's not practical.
