“This is going to be his college essay.”
Bloomfield Hills father Kenny Lipschutz — the owner of the above quote — couldn’t be more proud of his 16-year-old son, who recently alerted Birmingham officials to a woman he suspected of stealing his mother’s purse. The woman, 34-year-old Ferndale resident Jennifer Ann Chiotti, was recently charged with a felony in connection with the incident.
“It’s a great story and I’m proud as (heck) of this kid,” said Lipschutz of his son, Cranbrook High School sophomore Michael, “and he’s mine!”
After the Bloomfield Hills teen helped track down the accused purse-snatcher in front of the Birmingham 8 Theater, local police said while those affected in the Sunday incident were lucky to retrieve their property, many similar thefts go unpunished.
