Hurt and anger and the sense of invasion.
So sorry.

Had this happen in Santa Fe; unfortunately at the beginning of a trip to New 
Mexico.
$10 K in gear ripped out of the Van; along with irreplaceable  portfolio 
prints and 8x10 chromes
(as part of the trip involved sales), clothes, etc.
Horrible feeling.
Police were useless.
