As if being defeated on the field Tuesday evening wasn't bad enough for the Bainbridge High School soccer team, but then they discovered several thousand dollars worth of their possessions from their locker room had been stolen.

BPS Officer Archie Mills responded to the theft at Centennial Field at about 9:15 pm.  Team members reported that during the soccer game someone had apparently entered their locker room, which was situated only about 30 yards away from them, and stolen cell phones, cash and other items.

It was noted that one player, that had not dressed out for the game, told others that, somehow, he had $200 taken from his jeans.  It was also noted that he was seen texting throughout the game.  Speculation was that several individuals, known to the students as blood gang members, had gone into the locker room during the game.

We were told that witnesses spotted the 3 gang members going heading into the locker room.  One was a reported gang member and a 10th grader at BHS and the other 2 were reportedly northside bloods from Quincy, FL.

It was also reported to us that blood gang members can be easily identified at Bainbridge High School by the red kerchiefs they wear hanging from their back pockets and if that was not enough, flash gang signs on a regular basis.

One student reported his car had been driven during the game, parked in a different place and then his car key was replaced in his bag.

Several hundred dollars were stolen from the BHS players.  Other items reported stolen include several wallets with a number of credit cards, gold teeth grill, black gym bag, Nike tennis shoes, blue jogging pants, gold link loop necklace with Jesus pendant and Polo boots.

Cell phones stolen included a Verizon Dare, Verizon Verse, Verizon Envy, Verizon Blitz, Verizon Voyager and 2 Blackberry phones.
