Too Bad He Wasn't Wearing Sandals

Former Syracuse University football star Walter Reyes says he foiled a burglary and saved thousands of dollars raised for chatiry at the M & T Foot Ball from being stolen.
In June, Reyes was a participant at a charity event and a house guest at the home of the event's planner Lauren Russo-Duby.
Reyes said he was awakened at 1 a.m. when two alarm beeps sounded from his girlfriend's Pontiac Sunfire, which was parked in Russo-Duby's driveway.
As he looked out the window, Reyes said he saw one person in the front seat of Russo-Duby's Acura MDX and another trying to break into the Sunfire.
In the Russo-Duby SUV was a box containing thousands of dollars of checks, credit card receipts and cash from the M & T Foot Ball charity event.
Additionally, there were unsold sports items from the event, such as prints, autographed footballs and signed caps.
Wearing blue SU sweat pants and a pair of white socks, the shirtless Reyes said he chased three men down the street for about a quarter-mile until they escaped in a getaway car that he described as a red 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
"Obviously, I can't catch an SUV," said Reyes, one of the fastest men to play tailback for the Orange. "I tried. If I had shoes on, there would have been some trouble. I'm telling you, it would have been lights out for those guys."
Russo-Duby said nothing was stolen out of the cars, and the robbers only got into the glove compartment and console of her vehicle.
"Walter saved everything," she said. "I feel really blessed that he did that for me."

Paul's note: Great job by Reyes, but why did this person, run a charity event, then keep all the proceeds in their car? That does not make sense.
