Snatch Theft Footage: Capitol South - YouTube



Gotta admit, this is funny to me (not the act itself, but what happened afterwards).
She looked like she was about to eff him up.

Not funny. It was very dangerous, she could easily have slipped on the other side of the platform and rolled in front of the oncoming train, God forbid.

I hope that SOB is found and thrown in jail.

Just wait until cameras get updated with face recognition software. These dumb individuals will try to ride the metro or even metrobus again and be arrested and banned before they can take a seat. He didn't even realize or care that his face and crime was recorded on camera. Dumb.

Criminals who engage in property crime in the district and most large cities simply don't care if they're on film or not, because they know the police have little to no desire to actually track them down. All you have to do is be a victim of a property crime to understand how easy it is to get away with it. Even if you have a GPS tracker on your stolen items telling the police the EXACT location and the laptop/phone takes a picture of them, they simply don't care.

Violent crime gets a little more attention, but not much until it's a felony or murder type situation. It's usually not until you get to a crime that earns the local governing body fine money that they actually care about.

Yeah right.
That dude looked like the Michael Jordan of snatching.
He performed like a pro.

Maybe the Kwame Brown of snatching. She's wearing boots, unprepared, facing away from him, wearing a backpack and she almost caught him just behind that stack.

Yes, MPD confirmed it and check the YouTube video.

"This incident happened shortly after 2 p.m. on Saturday, March 22, 2014. The suspect was stopped and arrested outside the station. The phone was recovered."

And now he is probably right back on the streets because of the overcrowding at DC jail. Ready for another heist and so on and so forth. So what did his arrest really solve??
