What is wrong with people nowadays

Heh. With this, they'll figure him out sooner than you think.

mom
lack of parenting!

What next
So close to home. Someone has to know who this kid is. Very sad and disturbing.

GB
Who's home? Surely he's not doing this in his own neighborhood.

If he's that dumb to keep robbing, and in the same neiborhood, he's that dumb in the first place to not rob in his own neiborhood, and maybe he wants to get caught for attention, or his daddy doesn't give him enough allowance or pay enough attention to him - who knows about teenagers these days with poor parenting; At least we know what he looks like now!

Long Beach Local
Kinda looks like Matt Damon, doesn't it? Wouldn't that be funny? the shoes look like total Wilson High School garb, and the backpack looks expensive. Big shoulders...looks like an athlete. Checked the dorms at CSULB? starving student? The kid definitely wants to get caught.

wasnt aware a black backpack and white shoes were part of the official wilson uniform.

What a cry for help. Hope the LBPD catch this fool soon. BTW Link to the vid was not working for me (regardless of computer, was a 404 not found error).

just a thought
Anonymous it is interesting the offense taken because someone says it is possibly a Wilson student but posters to this site had a field day when the young girl lost her life and many, many posters were so eager to say it was a black gang banger from Poly and there was not even a photo. The picture of this person could just possibly be a typical student at Wilson or Cal State or not why so sensitive.

Any word on this???

there wasnt any offense taken. i just thought it was funny that a pair of shoes and backpack were indicators as to where the kid goes. the kid could go to any local school. get up is the same as you'll see on any male in their late teens

Becks
They STILL have not caught this dweeb!! He's been active from what I hear. Come on someone, somewhere has to know who this snot nosed punk is. I've heard he works with a girl. Kids talk and brag. Someone must know something.

I propose a nick name for the armed thief. Perhaps the Fixed Gear Crook, or the Armed Skinny Jeans Bandit. Any other ideas?
