According to the Union Tribune, San Diego Police are seeking help identifying a thief who appears to be targeting gay men at a popular Hillcrest bar:

“The suspect, who has identified himself as “Paul” or “John,” has picked up at least two men on separate occasions Dec. 2 and 18 at Urban Mo’s on University Avenue near Third Avenue, San Diego police said.

“The victims, who were in their 30s, ended up inviting the suspect back to their homes in North Park and Bankers Hill. When they woke up, they discovered that items such as laptops, cash, credit cards and Chargers gear had been stolen.
