AIR JORDAN SHOES THIEF USES PHONY MONEY AND BRUTALITY IN THEFT

Michael Jordan's good name has been dragged into a criminal investigation after a guy allegedly used fake money to score a pair of his famous Air Jordan shoes, and the seller got beat up during the deal.

The Jordans were being shopped on OfferUp.com for $385. The seller met up with a guy named Leon at a Burger King in L.A.. Leon handed the seller a stack of bills and walked away with the kicks.

Almost instantly the seller realized he'd been had ... the money was obviously counterfeit. The seller booked it to Leon's car, ran to the car and tried grabbing the shoes out of the passenger window, but the passenger had other ideas and punched him multiple times in the face.

Leon got away, but maybe not for long. Cops got a search warrant last month to check Leon's OfferUp account info.

So far, Leon's still on the loose.

The family was greeted by well-wishers who had gathered outside the church to see the fourth-in-line to the British throne. Kate then picked up Charlotte to carry her inside. William held George's hand as they entered and left the church, and George at one point waved to the crowds. Charlotte, born May 2 in London, wore the same christening gown worn by her big brother, Prince George, at his christening. The gown, remade by the queen's dresser, Angela Kelly, in 2008, is an exact replica of the gown first commissioned by Queen Victoria 174 years ago and has been used for every generation of royal infants.
