content: Didn't they say there was three minutes worth of footage? I guarantee if this hits MSNBC, you'll only get the 10 second clip of "poor curious black boy just having a look around; he dindu nuffin". My guess is the other 2 minutes and change demonstrate the robbery. He was probably trying to get out of there with any tools or metal items he could scrap. Hence, the hammer he dropped in the street when he took off running minutes later. This whole fucking story has fallen apart. It looks like he probably saw that person - who could be seen in the footage across the street - on the phone, got scared, and bailed. Maybe that person even shouted something, but I imagine they were calling the cops.
