A new twist in crime in the metro area as a 70 year old man smooth talks his way into the homes of the elderly in Warren. Apparently this man seemed harmless to a number of elderly residents. He ripped off $24 from one and had another drive him to Arby's. This may escalate to wheelchair jackings before long. | ||

Forget the wheelchair jackings, here is a wheelchair that will stick you up if you piss it off...  | ||

Cool. Does it have Segway technology like the Centaur? | ||

I believe that was the BASIS of the Segway technology. One of them was project codename FRED and the other codename GINGER if I remember correctly. The wheelchair came first. | ||

Quozl, I can see some old milkshake wheeling around the old folks crib in that 'horseless carriage'. What a hoot. (where do you get one?) Jimaz, the German model is called 'iBOOT' | ||

"This may escalate to wheelchair jackings before long" It escalated to that point decades ago. Many of these eldery people probably live alone and have no one to stick up for them. Plus, they grew up in the neighborly era, so they don't know any better. We must try to help the senior citizens when they get caught in situations like this, not joke about it. | ||

Welcome to the suburbs, where senior citizens rob senior citizens. | ||

Our Michigan economy is broke that most people don't have or spend up their retirement savings for feed their needs. And once that is gone some of them will start robbing other people even when they get old. | ||

Is Erma at it again? She should stick to selling cars. |
