MIAMI BEACH, Fla. – A 57-year-old guy used to be arrested Monday on accusations that he robbed every other guy for his “yellow metal necklace with a SpongeBob pendant,” Miami Beach police stated.
According to his arrest document, Carl Banks, who’s homeless, approached the victim round 12:35 p.m. Monday in the 400 block of Lincoln Road and started yelling on the victim.
Police stated Banks then snatched the $100 necklace from the person’s neck and fled eastbound sooner than hopping on a Miami-Dade County bus.
The victim supplied police with a video and picture of Banks.
Police stated a “Be On the Lookout” alert used to be issued to officials and Banks used to be later discovered strolling towards a bus forestall in the 300 block of Lincoln Road.
As officials had been detaining Banks, the victim approached one detective and recognized Banks as the one who had robbed him of his necklace.
Police stated Banks did supply a “spontaneous” observation to officials, then again his observation used to be redacted from the publicly launched document.
According to the document, the victim’s necklace used to be discovered close by, in part damaged. It used to be impounded as proof.
Banks used to be transported to the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center, the place he used to be booked on a price of strong-arm theft with prejudice.
