The last time we checked in on the Stop Sign Bandit, Tony Mosey, he was charged with a felony for removing a stop sign in St. Cloud, Minnesota. Now it turns out that prior to being arrested that night he was trampling the roofs of parked cars. Luckily, CSI-St. Cloud was able to crack the case wide open thanks to a shoe print left at the scene of the crime.

From: St. Cloud Times

St. Cloud State University hockey player Tony Mosey is facing a felony charge in Stearns County District Court after being accused of walking on a parked car, caving in its roof.

Mosey, 22, is charged with felony damage to property because the damage to the vehicle reduced its value by more than $1,000. Mosey made his first court appearance on the charge Monday. A court complaint charging Mosey accuses him of causing about $3,500 damage to a 1997 Buick LeSabre that had its "entire roof caved in."

That complaint indicates that the damage happened in the early hours of Sept. 20 in the 300 block of Fourth Avenue South. A man who had been on an apartment balcony in that area saw three men walking from the downtown area at about 1:25 a.m., according to court records. The witness told police that only one of the men walked onto the Buick.

The witness then saw the same man walk over to a second vehicle. Although his vision from the balcony was partially blocked, the witness told police that the same man likely walked onto and over the second vehicle, a Toyota Camry. Police found a footprint on the dusty roof of the Camry, according to the complaint, and located the three men that the witness reported seeing.

The three men showed police the bottoms of their shoes, and the print on the Camry's roof matched the sole pattern of Mosey's shoes, according to the criminal complaint.

Mosey is scheduled to be back in court Jan. 7 for his next hearing on the charge.

The felony conviction (if it happens) coupled with St. Cloud State degree (if it happens) means he'll have a good career in the janitorial arts.

What shocks me is that a 1997 Buick LeSabre was worth $3500 to begin with...

Good point.

This is clearly a case of a dishonest Buick LeSabre owner trying to cash in on a poor college student who got lost in the dark and accidentally tripped over the car on his way home.

Is it just me or does he look a bit unhinged in that mugshot. He looks like he's contemplating whether he could take the sheriff deputy or not, who would be just out of the picture...

Unhinged?

A lot of people look that way after talging with 12 pack of Natty Lights, 5-6 fat St. Cloud girls and the odd parked car....

Cute photo. Looks like Corey Feldman's little brother. Poor kid......I'd be chasing parked cars too if all I had to chase were the bizzos at St. Cloud.

Mosey had been arrested and charged with felony damage to property in Stearns County after St. Cloud police accused him of walking on a parked car, caving in its roof. That incident happened Sept. 20 and led to Mosey being suspended for the season opener.

Hepp was with Mosey during the car-walking incident and was cited at the same scene for possession of a small amount of marijuana, a misdemeanor violation to which he later pleaded guilty and paid a $135 fine.
