Snatch and grab iPad thieves rip off victim’s pinky, too

invisibleSHIELD case for iPad“A brazen theft in the Cherry Creek Mall left the victim with a permanent injury to his hand,” CBS News reports. “He had just bought an iPad as a favor for a friend.”

“Bill Jordan told CBS station KCNC he moved his family to Colorado from New Jersey 15 years ago to get away from a crime there,” CBS News reports. “Now after the iPad theft, he said his life and the life of his family will never be the same.”

“Last Thursday afternoon the 59-year-old Aurora man walked into the Apple store to pick up an iPad for a co-worker. ‘I had been asked by one of my colleagues in Canada to pick up an iPad for someone who is being promoted.’ Jordan left the store with his iPad bag tied around his hand,” CBS News reports. “Unreleased surveillance film shows two young men following him.”

CBS News reports, “A few feet from the doors to the parking garage Jordan felt a violent tugging at his arm. He looked down and saw a young man trying to grab his bag. ‘He was almost sitting on the ground he was pulling so hard and it was still tied around my fingers; and it wouldn’t come off and then finally he gave it one big jerk; and that’s when he stripped the skin off my pinky and it went right down to the bone.’ The robber grabbed the iPad and ran out of the mall.”

MacDailyNews Take: Gross, disgusting, repulsive, vile, and nasty, but enough about the scumbags who committed this crime.
