The timing of that football was a little too good. He watches as after making contact with the thief the football bounces off and lands a few feet away. The projectile was lunched at a quite a speed if it was traveling fast enough to knock the thief over. He comes to a stop next to the thief and picks up a bag that had been discarded the moment the theif met with the ground.

"You should really know better than to take things that don't belong to you." He says almost conversationally even though it's obvious the man is out cold.

His next question is where did that football even ocme from, he turns to see the child in the alley and makes a face. There was no way a child could luanched a football at such a high velocity without some form of assist.
