So, @Flame Gryphon, I have a cousin named Ben Ellis, with many similarities to you, which was quite disconcerting, when I read your article. 
So my girlfriend's car got sideswiped in the street, broke her side mirror off. They drove off before we could see the car. Their mirror was laying in the street, along with the cover, gunmetal grey. So I decided to act.
I grabbed their mirror, got in my car, and decided to check nearby areas. I checked the store parking lot a couple blocks away. No dice. I checked the neighborhood adjacent to ours up the street, no cars matched the description, all mirrors were intact. I decided to check one last place, the little strip mall area after turning left at the top of the street. It's got your Mama's Pizza, Cherry's Berry, and your Hector's.
After checking one of the lots, nothing. I'd go one more lot, just to be sure. Immediately to my right, in front of the Cherry Berry, a car with the right mirror missing the cover and the mirror, gunmetal grey. I drove through the rest of the lot, just to be sure. I came back to said car, parking on the right of it, one space down. I backed out, then parked on the left of the car. I pretended to go toward the Cherry Berry door, just to get a look at the mirror from behind. No cover, as I thought. I proceeded to turn around, approached the driver side of the vehicle. There were 2 teens inside, just sitting there talking.
*Knock knock knock* She rolls down the window. I politely explain that someone had hit my girlfriend's mirror off, and I noticed their's was gone. I asked if they had hit a car, she responded with "No". She said she came from maple, then asked what neighborhood it was in. An odd question I thought. I said it was right over there, pointing in the direction. I then observed the driver side mirror, and said "The car was this color, but I'm not sure if it matches". "Not the right shade?" she asked. I said "Yeah, I'm not sure, oh well, thanks anyways". I got back in my car, got their liscense number, and proceeded home.
I told my dad about my findings, got my girlfriend, and we went back, they were gone. Called the police, gave them the description, plate number, and described the incident. It's all circumstance though, but he took everything down and decided to follow up on it.
About 40 minutes later, he comes back. He went to their house. It was them.She lied to her mom about how it happened, but justice was served. All while wearing my Captain America shirt.
Nice Work, and ditto to Sir G's comment.

Who knows, we might be long-lost relatives.

Especially since he's married-in

Haha, right.
I almost died this morning but I'm still here!
A landscaper let a brush fire get out of control in my yard and I was woken up by smoke and firetrucks. It was less than 100 feet from my bedroom window and the fireman said it would have gotten to the house within three more minutes.

Fortunately I live alone so the only other living things I have to worry about are two cats. As far as collectibles, I have a box with a complete horrorclix collection in it that I could reasonably carry. I also have a signed print of the Master Woo concept art and some army cards autographed by CVN that are pretty unique.
Yikes! Glad to hear everything worked out.

My hands/fingers got scratched when I crawled across the ceiling & out the window, but that's about it, other than a mark on my forehead.

Expect the unexpected
It didn't dawn on me until I was off the road, by a 2003 PT Cruiser making weird smells, and people were stopping-by to call 911...
Well, while we're talking about near-death experiences, I flipped/bounced/flew my car twice today, on the way home... I ended-up crawling out of the shattered driver's-side window, even though I'd been shifted to the passenger's side, at that point...
Holy Crap Dude...be careful...lucky for you it turned out ok.
