Eyewitness Cell Phone Street Theft on Lincoln Place

My son and his wife came to visit last night around six or seven pm and were leaning out the front window to take in the street life (my son grew up here).

As they were admiring the view on Lincoln between Underhill and Washington (closer to Underhill) a black kid came running like hell down the street going towards Underhill, with a young white couple in hot pursuit. The man was yelling, "HE STOLE MY CELL PHONE!!!!!"

They followed the perp around the corner going towards Eastern Parkway. The perp was at least "half a block ahead" according to my two eyewitnesses and the likelihood of the two victims reclaiming their property was nil.

A few minutes later, the man came walking back up Lincoln alone, his body language radiating anger as he stalked up the sidewalk back to his building.

I guess the moral of the story is, PUT YO CELL PHONE AWAY SON. Or, at least hold on to it with a death grip so the thief running up on you from behind can't dislodge it from your fingers.
