A juvenile was arrested and charged with first-degree burglary and petty theft this week after stealing a football signed by the former Baltimore Ravens tight end, according to The Baltimore Sun.

Police said the young burglar sliced his way through the screen door of a house in Towson, Md. He "ransacked and destroyed" the home before leaving with the signed football and a Ravens replica Super Bowl ring. Heap, a former All-Pro, is currently a member of the Arizona Cardinals.

We doubt Heap advocates marauding by our nation's youth and we have no confirmation what led to this sudden fervor for the 32-year-old tight end.
