A 19-year-old man faces grand theft charges for allegedly trying to steal assault rifles from a pawn shop in Davie by stuffing them down his pants.
Marlon Paul Alvarez of Fort Lauderdale made his first court appearance Wednesday.
The Sun Sentinel reports that Broward County Judge John Hurley, reading from an arrest report, said Alvarez was seen Tuesday taking an AK-47 from a display and sticking it down his pants. Hurley said Alvarez removed the weapon, then took another assault rifle off another display, put it down his pants and then limped out the door.
Police say the owner of Public Pawn and Gun at 6798 Stirling Road confronted Alvarez and recovered the $830 weapon before Alvarez fled. He was apprehended a block away by Davie Police and identified by the store owner.
Davie Police said Alvarez later confessed to the crime. He was held on $25,000 bond for grand theft and the violation of a domestic violence injunction.
Jail records did not show whether he had an attorney.
“Is that an assault rifle in your pants, or are you just happy to see me?”
Should’a known that would be a repeat...
I wonder what his plans were if he got away with it.
babe, I can see where your REAL LIP line is, drawing them bigger is just dumb, like no one can see. Your not Lucille Ball and never will be.
Bet She’s a Good Shot!
