A trooper chased Velez and caught up to him on North 10th Street, state police said. Troopers said they found $690 in cash in Velez's pocket.


Probably sold 11.5K worth of gold for $700 bucks!

Spent $10 at the local burger joint before getting caught!

Oh, I left a bag of Saints on the floor when I went into the back with a couple of strangers in the store. Who does that?
