KICK YA WHILE YOU’RE DOWN

His vehicle was subsequently impounded. Police inventory discovered marijuana, drug paraphernalia and a pill in the car along with a Polk County permit to carry a concealed weapon and several guns.

SHITTY-PANTS THIEF

The victim was at home at his home at the 5800 block of Southeast Eighth Street on Nov. 5 when he heard a noise outside. He discovered two men inside his vehicle, who fled on foot. He caught one of them after about 30 feet and was detaining him for police but let him go when the suspect said he was shitting himself. His pants were falling off, which caused a liquor bottle to fall out. During the scuffle, the suspect pulled his pants back up and swung a skateboard at the victim, so the victim punched him in the face. The suspect was gone by the time police arrived but was discovered down the road at Hobby Lobby. He was arrested for second-degree robbery due to the victim reporting $160 stolen from his car. CV
