My neighbor across the street reported to police about their car being damaged last saturday night (sun 7/5 2am)
I went back through my camera footage and can show what happened. Unfortunately, not enough to ID.
The guy was walking down the street, (or one of my other cams would have got a better shot,) just runs up and jumps on the car,
intentionally stomping on and smashing the windshield, then hops off and walks away like nothing...

Cams are a Lorex LNB8005 (same as Dahua 4830, 1/2.5" sensor) ) and a Dahua 1831 (bigger 1/1.8" sensor), both 8MP cams.
Ther's a bright LED street lamp just across the street ( to the left of the car that was damaged.) and I have both these "overview" cams in forced color mode.
Not sure what I would do differently to ID someone 60 feet away at night. B&W with shorter exposure may have had better chance for ID,
but then I wouldn't have been able to say he had reddish pants and a probably a dark blue hoodie... the light string partially obstructing the view is new-ish and may
force me to reposition one or more cams (lower, i think, tho our own car usually parked right in front would have blocked this event from a lower vantage)
