Dumb Criminals: Portland Man Steals Violin Worth $70K, Then Apologizes As He Pedals Away On Bike

PORTLAND, OR (KPTV) -

Police were called to a home on the 5800 block of Taylor Street Sunday night. As officers responded to the scene, it was reported the suspect was on a bicycle wearing a backpack.

An officer spotted a man matching the description and took him into custody.

Investigators say Nico Longoria, 33, broke into a workshop behind a home that night. The homeowners heard a noise and then spotted the lights go on in the building.

They said the suspect left the workshop and took off on his bike. A man living in the home said he chased after Longoria briefly, but he got away. According to court documents, Longoria said "I'm sorry" as he rode away from the scene.
