Tuomo Ruutu mistaken theif

Chicago Blackhawks foward Tuomo Ruutu was mistaken for a robbery suspect and was briefly detained. It seems Ruutu matched the description of a robber.
"He met the initial description," Bensenville Village Manager James Johnson said. "This was just an unfortunate coincidence."
Ruutu who was wearing a black team sweat suit and matching hat, was out on a run following a team practice at Edge Ice Arena when he was spotted. The popo had been on the look out for a man in "a black jacket, black pants and black hat" who had marched into an apartment complex near the arena and demanded money from the office manager.
Ruutu was released after the popo asked for autographs. But it seems the forward doesn't have any hard feelings.
"I was just in the wrong spot at the wrong time," Ruutu said. "It happens to me all the time."
I hope that doesn't mean he gets arrested a lot.
