He didn't know them! It was random! The things people like apartment owners or police will say to calm public fear... Not that it could have been prevented by either party, but I wouldn't let my guard down thinking it was a specifically targeted person. Be vigilant! Additionally, this makes the victim possibly look bad, like he was into something he shouldn't have been. I hope that is not what people think. ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE! This was a kind and helpful MAN who fell easy prey to scum who suck at life and don't care about anything or anyone else but themselves or their sorry habits. If they do act like they are providing for a family or something by thieving, its from the blood of innocent people, their children will be proud. "Merry Christmas Son, we worked hard for this..." They probably PRETEND to be men by day...
