It looks like anti-Semitic Elmo—last seen getting arrested in Times Square last month—has headed out West, seeking greener pastures and fatter wallets. According to Michael Wilson, a writer for the New York Times’ City Room blog, the 48-year-old former pornographer was spotted at a San Francisco playground, then sent Wilson a bizarre email saying he was posted up at Fisherman’s Wharf in San Francisco, making bank:

“Why?” he wrote. “I am the only cartoon character.”

As if to drive the point home, he attached a picture of a pile of cash beside plates of sushi. “Feasting on sashimi,” he wrote.

Watch out, Los Angeles—he’s headed to you next.

After several troubling incidents this summer, it looks like anti-Semitic Elmo is back. The New York Times City Room blog reports:

The man, Adam Sandler, 48, who in June was removed from Central Park in an ambulance after going on a rant, was arrested in front of the Toys “R” Us store in Times Square shortly after 3 p.m., the police said. He was charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. Mr. Sandler was shouting and drawing a crowd that was blocking traffic, and he refused to leave, the police said.

A sad continuation of a creepy story.

In the latest instance of anti-social Elmo behavior, a man in Elmo garb arrived at Central Park and began to rant about the people of the book, only to be later taken off, stretcher-bound, in an ambulance. We wait for the ADL to weigh in on this issue, and for the announcement of Mayor Bloomberg’s Elmo Containment Committee. The city cannot wait.
