Denver police arrested a 20-year-old man in connection with an iPad theft that also cost the victim part of his pinky.
20-year-old Brandon Darnell Smith was arrested early Saturday at a traffic stop.
“It’s bittersweet,” the victim, 59-year-old Bill Jordan, told local ABC affiliate 7NEWS. “The bitter part of it is there is nothing anybody can do to replace this. It is what it is.”
The Apple bag was looped around his hand and the thief jerked hard several times to get it off — so hard that flesh came of Jordan’s left pinky. A surgeon later had to amputate part of the damaged little finger on his dominant hand.
Smith faces charges of robbery and second-degree assault. He hasn’t entered a plea and it’s unclear whether he has an attorney.
