Coincidence, correlation but no causation. Stolen to sell the bronze. One man arrested, more arrests to follow. Turns out had nothing to do with it.

How much did that thing weigh?  Just a guess... about 1000 lbs. (I have no clue, just illustrating a point).  Current bronze price is around 16 cents per ounce. or 2.56 /lb

So uhhhh like $2500 for it if you can melt it down and sell it off to someone who isn't asking questions...  But you KNOW that if they're not asking questions, they're paying a lot less for it.

What a dumb plan

Most crooks are less than masterminds.

They should make a movie about this.  So many angles:  the "mastermind" crooks, the outraged SJWs, the distraught baseball fans, the politicians, the police investigation...
The shaka sign, sometimes known as "hang loose", is a gesture of friendly intent often associated with Hawaii and surf culture.
