Man's kayak stolen, stranding him alone on Island

IOU a Kayak
quote:
One Biloxi man took a kayaking trip out on the Gulf this past Monday, but the adventure didn't end as he had planned. Rikki Callegari was the victim of a "kayak jacking."
quote:
He kayaked out to Deer Island around 11 a.m. and did some beach combing. The trip back is what caught him off guard.
"About 4:30, 5 p.m., I come back, come walking up with my haul and it was just gone," said Callegari.
The kayak was missing, and Callegari was stranded.
"No boats out there, nobody else. I was out there by myself," Callegari said.
Luckily, his phone had just enough battery to call the Biloxi Police Department, who quickly sent a boat to pick him up.
quote:
While he was waiting for his ride, something else caught his eye. Along with his life jacket and cooler, whoever took the kayak left something else in the sand.
"When I was walking up, there was actually writing all along the beach," said Callegari.
The first thing he noticed was the message, "I O U a Kayak." Next were the names Katie, Raelyn and Eric. It wasn't much to go by, but at least it was a start.

Judging by the hand writing. Looks like teenagers. That yak gone.

He should have pulled the key while combed the beach.

Damn impressive, OT detective if a suspect. Took one hour.

Eric, you're doing it wrong.

Well it is southern Mississippi so probably several Raelyns.
Does Raelyn have any FB friends named Katie and Eric??

It's a unique name and local to that area so I'd be willing to put some money on it, plus there are a Katie and Eric in her friend list.
They are going to be mad at her for having such a unique name.

Or mad at themselves for being idiots and leaving a note with their names on it at the crime scene.

Give them a week to drown in a kayak.
