Man steal girl lemonade stand money! email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 95/100. honeydew82174 (1245)4 months ago

thumbdownMaybe you've heard the awesometastic story of the little girl in Indiana chasing down a man named Steve Tryon who, cops say, robbed her lemonade stand of its entire $17.50 kitty.

Tryon was arrested and can be seen on the news wearing orange, cuffed, and apologizing for his actions.

Here's what I don't understand. According to his MySpace profile, he earns "over $250,000" a year. So why would he want to rob a lemonade stand of less than $20?

Good dumb question, right? I found this unbelievable. You are that big of a creep you have to steal from a child.

Maybe that is how he makes his $250,000 per year at $20 a pop?!? HAHAHA!! I am so glad that this peice of trash got arrested as he deserves to goto prison.

Then again maybe he is a poor broke punk an that has no money and lied on MySpace to try to snag a little girl looking for a "Sugar Daddy"

Personally to me it is probally the second senerio and he finally got one so he needed the $17.50 to take her to Burger King to "Share his wealth".

HAve a great day and thank you for sharing this story!!

Well i guess he is faking his myspace to look good but he is not at all earning that amount. i don't think a person earning 250k would try to rob an innocent girl of his earnings. That is just absurd.

Hi, I live in the town where this happened. It was an historic neighborhood where this happened called Farrington Grove. It is a very nice neighborhood. Steve Tryon is only 18 years old, so I do have my doubts that he makes $250,000 per year. The kids were able to identify him because he had approached them earlier in the day trying to sell them a pocket knife. He would have to sell a lot of pocket knives to make $250 grand. He said he was pressured into by someone else. It was certainly a very strange incident. I wonder what other things these people have or might have pressured Tryon into doing. I'm thankful the kids are safe and they moved their lemonade stand away from the street corner to a front yard with parental supervision. The news followed up and their sales were excellent after their news story was shown.

Wow, I think he need money for something but to steal from kids is to much. You shouldn't sell a knife to kids either. I bet this was the talk of the town. Im glad the kids made some money.

Yes, it was and is the talk of the town. Something like this puts the fear in parents, if fear was not already there.
