Man with autism helps cops nab alleged package thief

Quote:
A 22-year-old man with autism who dreams of becoming a cop helped police catch an alleged package thief in Detroit.

Jeff Powell works as an intern at the Harper Woods Police Department through an adult education program.

Powell was on a ride-along with an officer when he said he recognized 23-year-old Israel Crumpton from a home surveillance photo, according to WXYZ-TV.
