Police and security personnel nab burglar at Patriots’ Hall of Fame
Foxborough MA October 28 2019
A burglary suspect, who fled the Patriots’ Hall of Fame with memorabilia including a game-worn Tom Brady jersey was soon captured by police and security personnel.
Police said that 33-year-old Zanini Cineus was arrested on Thursday and charged him with stealing memorabilia from an exhibit inside the Patriots’ Hall of Fame.
When stopped, Cineus was wearing underneath his jacket when police located him, according to police.
But wearing the jersey apparently didn’t give Cineus any of Brady’s stellar movement in the pocket. Police and security personnel located Cineus in the parking lot of Patriot Place, a shopping center near Gillette Stadium that includes the Patriots Hall of Fame.
Cineus was then taken into custody, charged with larceny and later taken to Wrentham District Court for arraignment, police said.
This isn’t the first time someone has tried to steal Brady’s jerseys. In 2017, two of Brady’s Super Bowl jerseys from 2015 and 2017 went missing. They were later recovered by Mexico’s federal police and the FBI at the home of a former newspaper editor in Mexico City.
