Man in “fur vest” milling around Hoboken

11/8/2007:
Man with “fur vest” has been the #1 hit on the live police scanner today. People think he’s milling around town up to no good.
Earlier today, he was spotted near 4th and Grand streets randomly “looking into buildings”. Police couldn’t find anything.
However, just a few minutes ago, he was meddling with the traffic signal box outside the Hoboken Reporter office on 14th & Washington. A reporter from the paper phoned police and had followed the guy down Washington, and police stopped him. He apparently stuffed an “old t-shirt” inside the box, and police have determined that what he did wasn’t illegal, and was just trying to use it as his personal locker.
Great. I guess you can’t wear a fur vest in Hoboken without people suspecting you’re doing something wrong. DAMNIT!

Just goes to prove that having little fashion sense is not a crime! In NYC it is but not here.
Seriously I’m glad people followed If you see something, say something rule. They did their job and phoned it in, police did their job and checked it out, everything’s fine. Good job all.
By the way I used to have a ‘fur vest’ until I got my chest waxed. Ouch, that hurt.
Now finish your lunch.

Sounds like the drunk who used to hang around the Farside block. I always used to see him opening up the lightpost base convers and put stuff in or take stuff out.

If it’s the guy I’m thinking of, junkie is a better description. He’s not looking into windows, he’s mesmerized by his own reflection.

I see this guy every day rooting around in the trash cans. He seems to be quite self-sufficient (but then, it’s always the quiet ones). He usually wears pretty bad wig that only covers the top of his head. I must say that the fur vest he’s sporting today is quite beautiful – I saw him on my way down for a coffee.
I am sure the police and social services are well aware of this guy’s presence and that they’re doing everything they can to help him as the weather gets colder.

Hope he’s not a deviant because his look is awesome.

you’re sure “the police and social services are well aware of this guy’s presence”….why in the world would you think that? everyperson in hoboken knows where the drug dealers are…but somehow the police can’t seem to remove the problem from our community. these guys couldn’t find their a-holes in the dark with both hands. i sure hope these 5 pricks don’t expect any sympathy from the community for their “plight”…i don’t want to see any of my tax dollars going into their pockets. fire the chief and get back to work.

I love the Elvis guy who hangs at Panera, and the guy who wears Elvis glasses with a killer comb over. Bow-bitcha-bow-wow!
