(...) The person in the photo is likely to be William Swanberg. The photo credit date (Nov 16th) and the location (Portland, OR) match pretty close to when and where he was arrested. That AP photog deserves some kind of wacky pulitzer for being in (...) (19 years ago, 1-Dec-05, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) The person is not Swanberg according to article posted with the photo. Trust me I had the same thought last night, but over came the temptation to post that concern and found the caption this afternoon. It could be an accomplish: Franklin (...)

(...) I agree with JT. I'm about 95% certain it's Swanberg in the act of pilfering LEGO sets. The coincidence is just too great.

(...) Almost right. :-) Target probably gave the AP photographer permission to take photos for a holiday story with the stipulation that they get to prescreen the photos (and possibly keep copies) before giving the approval to run them.

here is the question to ask. What do you think he is thinking as he saw the guy with a camera? "I am going to get away with this again" "Is my helmet exposed" "Did I remember to send those packages out to EBAY" What do you think he was thinking? (...)
