Everything he ever knew about fighting he learned in communal showers.
Police reported the case started late Monday when a cell phone was taken in a vehicle break-in in a grocery store parking lot.
The victim used the phone’s GPS and found that it “pinged” near an apartment in the 600 block of Archer Street.
He knocked and a man who had been working as a street sweeper in the lot where the break-in happened answered the door. The man denied having the cell phone.
The victim said he just wanted the sim card from the phone and offered $50. The man told him to come back later. The victim came back about 3:15 p.m. Tuesday with two police officers.

Relationships, defamation and dubious art thefts.
Monterey County is asking a judge to quickly throw out a defamation lawsuit against the Sheriff’s Office filed by two men who contend they lost a world-class collection of art to thieves.
An attorney for the county says in court papers that the two men – Dr. Ralph Kennaugh and Angelo Amadio – have little chance of prevailing in their October suit that accuses the Sheriff’s Office of publicly defaming them in comments to the media about the massive art theft.
Christopher Cayce, the men’s attorney, argues that the Sheriff’s Office “egregiously used the media to litigate this matter in the press.” He says the sheriff’s spokesman made “egregious lies” unrelated to the “underlying investigation.”
The two men contend that the Sheriff’s Office sought to discredit Amadio because of his relationship with the daughter of a man with influential ties to the Sheriff’s Office.
Moreover, Cayce says in court papers the two men provided the Sheriff’s Department with documentation about the missing artwork, but the media were told the men were being uncooperative.
