Cops: Man tries to steal laptop to check Facebook

BRADENTON, Fla. -Sheriff's officers said a 19-year-old man snatched a Starbucks customers laptop after being told he could not use it to check his Facebook account. According to officers, the man then grabbed the customer's laptop and ran out of the coffee shop, located in an outlet mall.

Two people in the parking lot tackled the man and held him there until a mall security guard arrived.

The victim got his laptop back and the man was charged Saturday with robbery by sudden snatching, a felony.

"So what did you get arrested for?"

"Sudden snatching."

How lovely.



I think I know people that would do that just to check their facebooks. It's like an addiction for a lot of people at my school. No matter what time of day they are on it checking people status' or whatever.

facebook is important...but not that important.



I'm honestly surprised this happened with facebook and not myspace. I kind of wish this had happened to me, what a great story to tell. I can't imagine sitting in starbucks and having a stranger request to check their profile on my laptop, and then to swipe it. How exciting. This guy deserves a hug for commiting such a cool crime.



My daughter is my world.


yay, Galaki is back!!
