The Jersey Journal called Kendrick Floyd a "buzzard." After witnessing a car accident on Bayview Avenue here in Jersey City, Floyd decided he'd jump into the situation. Instead of rendering any kind of help or aid Floyd simply went into the vehicle and took the accident victim's cell phone and wallet. Yes Jersey City Desk fans, Kendrick Floyd saw the bad accident as an opportunity to steal.
Calling him a "buzzard" is much much too kind. We'd say Floyd is more like a cockroach or a dung beetle.
Luckily, as our story would have it, also assisting in the accident scene was Michael Chess, a 17-year veteran of the Hudson County Corrections Department. When the accident victim asked Chess to grab his wallet and cell phone from the vehicle Chess went looking but was told another man had already grabbed them. Guess who. Again, Chess is a 17 year veteran and he knows bad guys he's had run-ins with before.
Like Kendrick Floyd.
The Jersey Journal picks up the story:
That’s when Chess says he jumped up and called Floyd by name. When Floyd stopped, Chess grabbed him and demanded the items back. Chess managed to grab the cellphone, but he said Floyd took off on Ocean Avenue with the wallet, Chess said...Floyd was arrested yesterday afternoon at his Garfield Avenue home and charged with robbery and resisting arrest.
The drivers of the vehicles in the accident were treated by EMT's and released. And got their phones and wallets back.
