Teenager steals Air Jordans in Craigslist robbery and has his arm severed in horrific
A 17-year-old Brooklyn teenager is missing an arm, and a 39-year-old man is facing attempted murder charges. This is the result of a horrific scene in New York on Friday that unfolded from a seemingly routine Craigslist transaction.
The 39-year-old man known only as "Phil" is a regular buyer and seller of sneakers on Craigslist. He agreed to a sale with the teenager and the pair met in the middle of the day on a busy street. It's here that things went wrong. Climbing into Phil's SUV, it's reported that the 17-year-old pulled a gun on the man, took the sneakers and walked off. Rather than calling the police, Phil took things into his own hands. He did a quick u-turn and ran over the teenager attempting to walk away with the sneakers. The thief's arm was severed in the collision, but adrenaline caused him to run off, with one arm, before collapsing outside his house. The boy is in stable condition and doctors plan to reattach his arm, while Phil is facing charges. Let this story be a reminder: Craigslist can be amazing, and horrifying. If you're going to conduct a transaction you should consider the site's safety tips. http://www.sbnation.com/lookit/2016/...vered-brooklyn |

I read about this yesterday. It's just crazy and it wasn't even for the DB8s or something worth the effort. Dumb thief with one arm now or one 100% functioning arm. But "Phil" is screwed since he's in the wrong sadly.

The kid robbed him at gunpoint and stole a pair of sneakers. Mind you, he dragged the kid off the bus then proceeded to run him over, thus severing his arm. Although this is ugly, it't not "wrong"....this is where this country is fucked up. That little dirtbag is lucky. |

NYPD wont give a damn about robbery.
Sneakers aren't worth killing someone though.
