 Thief with no balls | | By: UpAllNight | Published: 03/15/2000 | | |  |

NEW YORK (AP) -- The game is over for "Soccer Guy," a thief who
picks the pockets of Japanese men by distracting them with his
fancy footwork, police say. Ben-Msyly Gil-Elie, 29, was arrested and charged with multiple counts of grand larceny after
police witnessed his act. "I'm not a soccer fan, but he was very
convincing," Sgt. James Molloy said. "We observed an individual
literally dancing around, he actually placed his hand inside
this individual's pocket, but the complainant pushed him away."
Gil-Elie was identified by four victims at lineups, Molloy said.
He was awaiting arraignment.
Molloy said 15 or 16 men have reported being victims of the scam
since October. The officer did not disclose how much money was
taken.
For months, Japanese men -- tourists and residents -- reported
that they had been pickpocketed by a man who demonstrated soccer
moves without a ball.
