A Craigslist robbery went very wrong on Friday when a teenager tried to steal some Air Jordans, but the victim ran him over instead.

According to police, a 17-year-old boy met up with a Craigslist seller. The teen got in the seller’s car and pulled out a gun, stealing the sneakers and starting to walk away.

But the victim wasn’t about to let the teen get away with the theft. The victim pulled a U-turn and slammed into the teen with his car, severing the boy’s arm.

The boy ran away and jumped onto a nearby bus, but the victim caught up and yanked the teen off the bus, announcing that the teenager had robbed him.

The teenager managed to escape again and then ran home, where he collapsed. The boy and his arm were rushed to a nearby hospital, where he is reportedly in stable but serious condition.
