Crime / iPad Man Robbed of iPad Also Loses Finger Thief pulling on shopping bag strips flesh off victim's pinky By Marie Morris, Newser Staff Posted Apr 20, 2010 2:24 PM CDT Copied An Apple customer displays the new iPad next to his iPhone, April 7, 2010, in Palo Alto, Calif. (AP Photo/Paul Sakuma, file) A Colorado man picking up an iPad for a friend was robbed as he left the store—and the thief pulled so hard on the bag holding the gadget that the robbery victim also lost part of a finger. "He stripped the skin off my pinky and it went right down to the bone," Bill Jordan tells CBS 4 Denver. "It's like a bad dream." Jordan couldn't even fill out a police report, because the injury—the police report says the finger was " degloved "—was to his left hand and he's left-handed, reports the Denver Post. Asked what he'd tell the thief, Jordan said, "I hope you understand what you've done to my life and my family's life for a simple piece of apparatus that'll be junk in a couple of years."
