A couple weeks ago, Big Hands Guy, the notorious redeemer of things unpurchased, popped up in Wallingford after a long absence. Last Friday, GamerGrl posted:
I have seen him three times this morning cruising 45th. He’s doing a circuit between Domino’s and Bartell’s. He’s wearing a Geek Squad (from Best Buy) tee.
Then, he returned to the scene of the crime. Hanako O’Leary from Seattle Mosaic Arts writes:
So only about a week after he came into our shop and tricked us, Big Hands Guy comes back for round two. I had just opened the store and was getting ready for the day when who walks in but Big Hands Guy!
Before he could say anything, I immediately called him out for coming into our store the week before, stealing merchandise off our shelves, and returning them for cash. He became very offended and insisted that he didn’t steal anything, that he had receipts to prove his innocence in the car. I told him he would have to show me his receipts or leave.
He stomped out of the store muttering obscenities. I called the cops.
Everyone beware of Big Hands Guy!
See our post earlier this month for a photo.
I saw this guy yesterday evening (~4:45 pm) at the Shell station at 15th and Beacon on Beacon Hill. He walked across the street with a woman, who then veered off and disappeared, and he went into the Shell station. I’d read the reports on him over the years and noticed that he looked like “that big hands guy” so I looked at his hands and sure enough, they’re noticeably swollen. He was wearing a tshirt and jeans and looked skinnier than I’ve seen him in some of the previous video and photo footage, but otherwise still the same. The woman he was with was medium height, a bit heavy (size 18 or so? Maybe 5’7″?) and had medium-gold-brown shoulder length hair in a ponytail. She appears to be Caucasian.
