What is the name of your state? INDIANA
My car broke down on my way home from office at about. I parked it at nearby parking lot and went to the mechanic for help. He promised to tow the car to his shop and get it repaired. I called him again around 4.30pm and he was yet to tow it. At reminder he got it towed to his shop, but had closed his shop and left before the tow truck came in. On the same evening somebody broke into the car, and took off my new car stereo, breaking my window glass.
Now he claims that he is not responsible and showing all boards saying "not responsible for theft in car" outside his shop. But I feel it all happened because of his negligence as he was in posession of my car at that time. He himself had got it towed and parked at a theft prone place, neglected my car by not waiting for the tow truck. I would not have done that if the keys were with me.
I want to make sure he is responsible before I go for a claim. Please help.

I suggested he ask this in here, as it was not appropriate for the forum it originated in.
