NYP: A thief snatched a cellphone from a 13-year-old subway rider and tried to flee on the tracks in Queens Tuesday —
but karma caught up to him when he ran into an oncoming train, police sources and witnesses said.
The 33-year-old crook grabbed the gadget and bolted from an M train into a subway tunnel near the Northern Boulevard station in Woodside at around 8 a.m., the sources said.
But the brainless bandit made it only a short distance before spotting a Manhattan-bound F train — more
*I wonder if that racist anti-Palin rap singer will suggest they pull a train on this perp?
*the perp’s favorite romantic movie is “A Streetcar named Desire”
*the perp’s favorite action movie is “The Taking Of Pelham 123”
*I apologize for derailing this thread
That’s it. I’m out.
After reading the headline I thought this was going to be a “feel good” story. And buy that I mean I thought the thief was going to end up like Rachel Corrie (aka St Pancake). But no. Not only is the thief alive but he skinned his knee and was shocked by all that electricity (that is a result of some form of carbon being burned) as he was dodging trains left, right and center.
This is going to end with the thief suing everyone. I mean from the 13 year old that he stole the phone from to the citizen who tried to stop him to the city that runs the trains. This guy is going to have PTSD and society is to blame. Just wait and see.
F train, he ha.
He thought he saw the light at the end of the tunnel ..but…….
Hm… No name, ethnicity, ect… Could his name be Mohammad?
I was relieved to learn that the cell phone was okay.
Released with no charges?
That’s what you call a deterrent in NYC, you can’t leave the city.
Is the phone OK?
and the Mooch asked the Looter, “All that for a phone?”
The Karma Train is just and wise, but loses points for letting the swine live.
Heh heh. I took the F train to work daily for 26 years.
