TV cop Jesse L. Martin became a real-life crime victim after returning to his hometown to shoot a film. The "Law & Order" star was eating breakfast in a restaurant Monday – signing autographs and even offering career advice to the cook, a would-be stand-up comic – when someone broke into a sport utility vehicle and stole his luggage, video iPod and dozens of autographed photos. Martin flew back to New York City a few hours later with only the clothes on his back and his wallet. A graduate of the Buffalo Academy for Visual and Performing Arts, Martin plays Detective Ed Green on the NBC series. He was in Buffalo to shoot an independent film, "Buffalo Bushido." "He’s lived in New York City for 20 years and has never been robbed or a victim of theft," the film’s director, Peter McGennis, said. "He comes back here and in two days he gets fleeced."
Jam!
He sounds like a good guy and that sucks that that happened to him.
