The victim met with the suspect at 20 Delatour Road, police said, and police arrived a short time later.

Police identified the serial number on the guitar as that reported stolen and arrested Brian K. Morrison, 29, of Lake Shore Drive B5 apartment 1.

There is actually a "Best of Craigslist." Approach at your own risk.

For example: I have a mastiff with a problem--I fear for my life

I couldn't keep this jewel to myself, I had to share. ANYBODY that has owned a dog will understand.

In reply to Bent-Valve (FS) :

140 lbs to cause that...pffft. We had a 14 lb cat that would clear a 20' x 24' room with the "silent but deadly" gas attack. She would climb up on the couch & settle in next to my wife, hang out getting rubbed for a while,  let one go, then get up & jump off the couch. About 2 seconds later my wife would start choking & within 30 seconds I would be getting up to leave the room. I was usually at least 15' away. Luckily after a year or so she stopped trying to kill us...

1999 Corolla - fine AF

Brutally honest depiction of the Rolla as we know it.
