Via [1]drudge:
A man was ordered to be held without bail after police tied him
to a recent armed robbery. But at least he has his thumb back.
Police said Bryan Perez, 22, and an accomplice made off with
hundreds of dollars in cash in an Oct. 11 raid at an alleged
brothel in Washington's Columbia Heights neighborhood. According to
charging documents, one of the victims took control of Perez's
silver machete during a struggle and hacked off his right thumb.
I guess it was a four finger discount.
