    He walks like a yard ape. Shouldn’t be hard to find this one. Anyone check the zoo?

    • em0886

      He hasn’t been convicted of anything yet,slow way, way down on the judgements people..

        Em, this cant be you. If it is, everyone needs to know that you’re actually serious and banging the innocent until proven guilty drum. That theory was fine when “technology” and “wheel” were used in the same sentence, but these days only select cases require the long drawn out expensive charade that is our legal system. This moronic mind set and these stupid expensive outdated philosiphies need to meet their end.

        • em0886

          The moronic mindset is the one that immediately assigns guilt on a 2 paragraph news article and a tiny grainy photo.

          • Dave’s Not Here

            Whoever is in that photo is guilty, and guilt therefore can be assigned.

            I do not think that is even questionable at this point. Or are you theorizing he is there to fix the trailer, and the items that went missing while he was videotaped taking them are gone by coincidence?

  • Squinting

    Can you make the photo a little smaller, I can almost see what he looks like

    • Maybe

      hahaha

  • Maybe

    If the police patrolled NORTH a little more MAYBE just MAYBE it might lower crime

    • Doubtful

      Doubtful….I don’t have police patrolling my neighborhood every second and the crime seems to be faaaar lower….I wonder what the difference is??

  • who knows

    Such a great photo, I’m sure he will be behind bars in no time at all!

  • just sayin

    Oh I think we can narrow it down to North Minneapolis.

  • moron

    Pictures can tell 1,000 words…

  • Tyrone

    What about the fact that he’s black. That’s kinda important…

    • Joseph E. Blow

      I would have to agree. Why isn’t the race of a thief important enough to report if they are seeking information from the public?

  • Garry Freeman

    just a $1000 dollar reward? Make it $5000 dead 6000K if his head is delivered on a pungi stake. I bet that will cure a heck a lot of wanna be thieves. Maybe Sharia law would not be such a bad thing for a thief.

  • r rush

    I guess the bright side of this is he wasnt killing anyone

    • well

      Had he been caught by someone he probably would have attempted to.

  • shotspotter

    C R I M E A P E

  • See BS

    Can’t we just have them rounded up and exterminated? Enough is enough.

  • jeff

    he looks native american to me. no neck, no butt, an enlarged liver. yeah he’s definitely native.
