    It's nice to see that not only did they get this guy but that 3 people were there to help try to catch him. Better security and arrests like this may help to deter thefts.

    What a piece of crap. I hope the judge gives it to him.white plains is such a nice show and jimmy Ryan works so hard putting it together.i was at the show friday and was told that 2 dealers had 52 mantles stolen at the nationals .the dealer who told me that said he had a 51 bowman mays stolen from him at the nationals . He said the guy reached into his showcase when he wasn't looking

    This azz hole is going to be charged with more than theft. Like the post above me, I hope he spends some time in jail.

    Bad enough to steal the cards but to knock down 3 people with a car in the process?? wow

    Hopefully more dealers will start using locks on the showcases

    What a turd. If this scum doesn't look like he lives in his mothers basement, then I don't know who does.

    All that for sports cards. Amazing on how some people's brains work (or don't work which was clearly the case here).

    Why do all card thieves look like Gary (80sjunkie)?

    The people he ran into also ought to sue this dirtbag and take every penny he has.

    seems totally not worth it, "$1500 worth of cards" at the show means a couple '90 frank thomas psa 9s and a raw '85 mcgwire...stuff he could've gotten on ebay for around $40.

    22 year old loser who's stealing cards from a card show and resorting to attempted murder to keep them. Think he has any pennies to start with?

    Any money he had was probably spent on crushed up mothballs that he thought was meth.

    Hey, you never know. He was driving a Ford Mustang and most meth heads don't even own a car so he might have a rich family (unless the car was stolen), lol..

    He was caught dead to rights.

    Save the expense of the trial....Let's just have a public stoning!

    The kid is a scumbag for stealing the cards in the first place and happy he got caught. But even happier that other people got involved in attempting to apprehend him. Good job all the way around.

    If they were PSA cards then the old saying "Cocaine, heluva drug" when something like this happens can be replaced by "The Registry, it's a heluva drug"
