But somewhere in between, just before the riddle’s answer was announced and that James Walker Morales — a 34-year-old from Long Island, New York — was the culprit, another man (an unidentified man) came into the picture to seal the case shut.
He’s a homeless man, in the Bronx, and one day last week while collecting bottles and cans in a park directly across from Yankee Stadium, he came upon a garbage bag with three of the 16 missing weapons from the Lincoln W. Stoddard Army Reserve Center in Worcester, Massachusetts.
Instead of keeping them for himself, or selling them to a street dealer, he called 911, and turned the guns over to local police.
According to officials, the reservist stole 10 Sig Sauer 9mm pistols and six M-4 combat rifles from the military facility.
