Default Immobilized Won’t Crank

I have a 2010 XFR, when i went to leave tonight i found the gas cap pried open, they siphoned my fuel but they also managed to brick the car and immobilize it. Currently I have a no crank no start situation. I tried clearing codes, disconnecting the battery, and locking and unlocking the car.

Looking for any possible solutions or if anyone is local to the DFW area that may be able to help

- Thank you

I have tried and it's impossible to siphon fuel that way anymore. Yes in the old days it was easy. I know I have tried to empty fuel tanks and I always have to remove the fuel lines to do it.

I would be VERY suspicious that they poured something in the tank?
Could they have done additional damage? Even with junk in the tank that would not cause a no start?
I think you need to get the car hooked up to the factory SDD setup and reset the immobilizer?

What scanner are you using and what codes did you erase?
That might give us a few clues?

Check is the "alarm led" on the top of the dash flashes a sequence at you when you try and start the car. As I recall it flashes out 2 digit codes with long/short flashes to identify pats errors.
