Tim,
Hopefully someone reaches out to you with info.

Really? Have you contacted the POLICE?
Police NO Help
Why would that be?
If someone took your property, thats a police case.
You are obviously leaving out some important information in this story
If you need advice on how to get the police interested, heres a suggestion
Go to his house with a gun, the police will take an interest real fast

In our area, property crime is dealt with by your insurance company. Period. Police involvement is handled over the phone or online and results in a case # to facilitate your insurance claim.

Maybe not take a gun there. You will probably become the target. (I get it tho) But there may be a way for them to respond to a loud disagreement??

Agreed current law enforcement stance is lax and flaccid. Due to current national circumstances.
Hire two guys to take Bats over there to Kneecap the Guy and tell him that he took some things that was not his and he has 5 Days to "Make Things Right" or else.

^^^ this.
Or a variation, 2 fresh off the plane Russian "enforcers". All they've got to do is stare at him and he'll soil himself. He will return the parts gift wrapped, and immediately.
File a theft report with police and tell them it is for insurance company files. They might be too lazy to file a report,in which case call your insurance company (you have insurance,right? ) and declare top retail value. Don't go to jail over it,but be persistant with law enforcement. This is a different time than many of us lived through in the 60's. You may end up with settlement from insurance.
Sorry, I am not buying the police wont help. I have literally witnessed police take theft reports for a can of soda.
Something doesn't add up. The original poster complained months ago and still hasn't figured this out? He knows the person that stole his property?
Self reporting property crimes over a $1000? Maybe, but highly unlikely.
Probably best if you dont handle a gun. Might be too dangerous for you.
If you disagree with the police that your situation is a civil matter, there are numerous avenues you could pursue regarding your dissatisfaction with their decision. (As an example, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department has a link regarding how to make a complaint against an officer on their web page) Another option is to file a private criminal complaint (A private party can request a summons be issued in N. Carolina under G.S. 15A-304) Beyond that your next option is filing a civil suit. That can usually be done with or without an attorney.
As just stated the District Attorney refused to file charges I paid a Lawyer to look into it but going no where .
I'm sorry, I misunderstood. I thought the DA had refused charges on the Z06 allegations, not on the stolen Shelby parts allegation as well.

Yeah, the last one was over a bad 20.....and Biden's media blew it out of proportion and look what happen. Now you got the DemoRATS defund the police.
Is the suspect known to you? an employee, business partner, family member or girlfriend? If so that would explain the civil conclusion.
I can understand the OP's frustration and can believe that the police might be of no help. Years ago, our home was burglarized and it involved firearms of considerable value. We knew who did it and where they lived (close by). The police refused to confront the perps or obtain a search warrant. We filed an insurance claim and received compensation for the then current value but the sentimental value far exceeded that. In today's environment, unless you a) know someone of importance b) kill someone or c) call someone an ethnic slur, you'll not get much attention from the police. Usually, it's not the police's fault. They've been told what to do and what not to do.
