[size=10pt]AUGUSTA, Ga. - A U.S. Marine reservist collecting toys for children was stabbed when he helped stop a suspected shoplifter in eastern Georgia.
Best Buy sales manager Orvin Smith told The Augusta Chronicle that man was seen on surveillance cameras Friday putting a laptop under his jacket at the Augusta store.

When confronted, the man became irate, knocked down an employee, pulled a knife and ran toward the door. Outside were four Marines collecting toys for the service branch's "Toys For Tots" program.

Smith said the Marines stopped the man, but he stabbed one of them, Cpl. Phillip Duggan, in the back. The cut did not appear to be severe.

The suspect was transported to the local hospital with two broken arms, a broken leg, possible broken ribs, assorted lacerations and bruises he obtained when he fell trying to run after stabbing the Marine.

The suspect, whose name was not released, was held until police arrived. The Richmond County Sheriff's office said it is investigating[/size]

It totally amazes me how anyone so "CLUMSY" could even consider a life of crime.

Yeah! that story just made my day.
I know a bloke who was in the police force when he lived in the UK. He said it was amazing how many prisoners would fall over the sergeant's bicycle in the stair well on the way to the lockup.
:wink:

Sidewalk a little bit slippery was it?

And I'll bet the police and district attorney are not investigating his claims too hard. :y114:
