Did the victim have hundred dollar bills hanging out of his pockets too? I hate random crime late at night in Portland as much as anyone, especially in the Arts District, and I don't believe in blaming the victim, but come on! A Bentley? He was probably wearing a commodore's hat and spats on his feet too. Wearing that much jewelry probably isn't safe even in the gated community in which he likely lives.
And of course I hope they catch and lock up the robbers. Then perhaps the episode will have been instructive for all.
