posted (August 19, 2020)
He was robbed and left half naked, but days later spotted his pants and shoes on Buy and Sell.

The robbery happened just before 9:00 on Saturday night when 34 year old Jose Reyes was riding his bike near Lord Ridge Cemetery. That's when he was approached by two men who held him up at gunpoint and demanded money.

They ended up in a struggle resulting in Reyes being relieved of a pair of Under armour tennis shoes, a pair of Black pants, and his Alcatel Cell phone. The men then ran off escaping toward the Cemetery.

But a few days later on Tuesday August 18th, while Reyes was browsing through Buy and Sell he spotted the very colourful pair of tennis shoes listed for sale. That's when he called the police.

A search was conducted at the home of the lister which resulted in the discovery of two of the items and a tip off to search another home where Reyes's cell phone was found. Reyes has recovered all of his items from two teens, aged 13 and 17.
