Legal Juice
Hey, The Juice wasn’t born yesterday, or the day before that, or … this gent clearly thinks the police were. He “fell asleep” at 3:10 a.m. on the subway? As reported by brooklynpaper.com in the police blotter for the 84th Precinct (Brooklyn Heights–DUMBO–Boerum Hill–Downtown):
A thief swiped a sleeping man’s wallet on a Coney Island-bound N train on April 6, according to the authorities.
The victim said he went out for drinks in Manhattan and that when he boarded the train at Herald Square at 3:10 am, his wallet was in his front pocket. He said he fell asleep immediately and did not wake up until the train reached the Atlantic Avenue–Barclays Center stop, at which point he discovered that his billfold had been lifted, cops said.
Just so it’s clear, the guy goes out drinking on Saturday night, and is on the train at 3:10 a.m. on Sunday morning when he “falls asleep.” Really? He must be one sound sleeper, not waking up as someone took his billfold from his front pocket. Please. Does anyone really believe the dude was not 100% passed out? It was in his front pocket! Anyway, as for what the perp got …
The wallet contained debit and credit cards, a MetroCard, and $100 in cash, according to a police report.
Hey, it could have been worse (iPhone, watch, clothes [like he would have noticed?]).
