Why would anyone want to steal a prosthetic leg, especially that of a Vietnam Veteran?!
Well, I guess this Eagles’ fan felt otherwise at Sunday’s game against the Giants. A woman, who appeared to be in her 20s, grabbed Sonny Forriest Jr.’s leg and ran off SMH. As a die-hard Eagles fan, I promise we do not all act this way…More details on this crazy story after the jump !

Police in Philadelphia are looking for a woman who allegedly ran off with Sonny Forriest Jr.’s fake limb outside Lincoln Financial Field during the Eagles game on Sunday night. Forriest often entertains Eagles fans with his singing outside the stadium, according to CNN affiliate WPVI.
Forriest told police that he took off his leg because it was hurting him. It was on the back of his motorized wheelchair when an intoxicated woman in Eagles gear jumped in his lap and broke his microphone, he told CNN affiliate KYW. The woman, who appeared to be in her 20s, then grabbed the leg and ran off.
WPVI reports that police found Forriest’s prosthetic leg on a subway train about midnight Monday. No arrests have been made in the case.
