According to his own tearful media statement he never said that, claiming all other statements by him to be fake. But you can sort of see it on him, can't you? How he would, indeed, steal candy from babies and then laugh.

Seems like the kid got a signed cap when the incident went viral: www.newsweek.com/piotr-szczer...

Good for him. I'm glad he got his moment at last but it doesn't change how the real one still got ruined.

He'll steal crack from a junkie seems more likely.
