Mugged

Last night, about a block away from home, a young black male, approximately 16 years old, stole my iPad from my hands and ran.

I called 911, and there was a police car there in a startlingly short time. We spent about a half hour cruising the neighborhood, trying to spot the kid. Didn't. The cop filled out a report, and said that detectives would call me. I don't hold out much hope for any further developments, but we'll see.

Thus ends my approximately 20-year streak of "not being a crime victim in Dorchester". Pretty good run, all told. Still kinda shocky, though...
