“The act of prying open the window of a locked vehicle qualifies as a use of physical force against the property of another, as 18 U.S.C. sec. 16(a) uses the term-this was not a case in which the car owner carelessly left her doors unlocked and returned to find her collection of compact discs stolen, all with no damage to the car.”

Affirmed.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Lindberg, J., Wood, J.
