We Live In The Strangest of Worlds
I was watching television when I seen this News Story; “Man on Crutches Robs Bank“. Not only that, but I seen it soon after that on the internet and then TV again.
ALBUGQUERQUE, NM — New Mexico police and FBI are searching for a robber who fired two shots inside a bank Tuesday. Luckily, no one was hit when he fired the gun. Police say the masked man didn’t seem too worried about making a fast getaway as he limped out of the bank. They also say it doesn’t seem as though the crutch was a prop or disguise.
Come on. What’s next? People in wheelchairs and full-body casts waltzing in with AK47s and demanding their money?
I can see the news broadcasts already…

Are you serious? A man in crutches robbing a bank? Ooh, that’s gonna be hard for the police to detect… Yeah, he doesn’t stand out at all :/
What freaks me out is that police haven’t found him yet. He’s in crutches, I doubt he’d be getting far. It’s weird how he’s not letting the crutches get in the way of making a scene at a local bank. Weird…

I think it’s sort of funny. I guess handicapped people can be deranged and unruly too. Is it sort of discriminatory to think that people in wheelchairs won’t rob a bank? I never thought about it before.

It’s probably one of the most bizarre news stories, I’ve heard in awhile. Kind of amusing though.

Thanks for your comment about learning the guitar. You must be really hardcore to have practiced long enough to get those bubble-blister things.
That is one of the strangest pieces of news I have read. I guess that guy must have been pretty desperate for money!
January 28th, 2008 at 1:10 pm
wow. That’s just crazy. And he got away with it? How could someone not stop someone on CRUTCHES from walking away with a bunch of money?! The gun probably wasn’t even real. lol. If you’re stupid enough to go on crutches then you are stupid enough to use a fake gun. lol

Ok so I about fell out of my chair reading this. If it’s not one thing it’s another though. Cool scam though. Nice site. I’m loving the layout.

that is so stupid its funny.people will do the dumbest things especially for money.that person obviously is a total dummy lol.
January 30th, 2008 at 10:50 am
In a bizarre kind of way, he’s letting us all know that the handicap can too do whatever the non-handicapped can do. lol.
Quite interesting!

It sure is crazy … but the guy had a gun *gulp* I mean even if he’s on crutches – that sure made him dangerous, right?

Really weird, indeed :\

People are stupid. Seriously, if we can’t catch a criminal on crutches, how can we catch able bodied theives?
February 4th, 2008 at 2:54 pm
lmao! A robber on crutches.. COME ON! What the hell are we playing at.. and him for that matter..
LOL he probably needed money to pay for a wheelchair, so he could rob another bank. Then he might be able to afford and ELECTRIC WHEELCHAIR! woot. lol. Sorry.. im a little crazy!
February 4th, 2008 at 3:05 pm
All I can say is–WOW. Either that guy was just stupid, or in desperate need of that money.. either way, idiotic thing to do (even more so than just robbing a bank… without broken limbs)!
February 5th, 2008 at 5:28 pm
That’s… beyond strange. Maybe he felt that he should be discriminated against and hoped on the bank-robbing bandwagon!

There was something in the news a few months ago about a pensioner robbing a bank. I think it’s sad. Although I don’t know this guys situation, it makes me wonder about what people will do when they’re desperate.
February 6th, 2008 at 10:05 am
Epic lulz!
February 6th, 2008 at 1:40 pm
Haha, that made my day! I could imagine loads of police chasing a man down the road in crutches now XD lol.
He really must of been desperate for the cash

Oh, hm. Don’t you just love today’s society. I watched a local news report on this guy that was trying to rob an espresso stand but broke his leg trying to kick the door open. (taped on security camera) He then limped off. xD
February 10th, 2008 at 5:19 pm
Well, that’s odd
Though, would’ve thought someone at the bank could’ve stopped and limping man…
February 11th, 2008 at 12:07 pm
That…is just pitiful. We’re living in a world that is definitely lacking. No one could have stopped him? I mean, c’mon now. What kind of criminals is this going to inspire is a good question.
February 11th, 2008 at 6:13 pm
LOL! That seriously made me laugh.
February 13th, 2008 at 7:05 pm
I guess people on crutches need to eat, too.
February 15th, 2008 at 7:16 pm
I can’t believe that actually happened. I am going to look into that some more.
February 16th, 2008 at 8:53 am
It’s crazy what the world is coming to nowadays.
February 16th, 2008 at 11:57 pm
Well, he had a gun… I can see why he was able to limp away without intervention.
February 20th, 2008 at 2:22 am
Someone should have sent him a flying kick at the back of his head or something.
February 20th, 2008 at 2:42 pm
Ahahahaha, that’s brilliant!
Not.
How much did he make off with?
February 20th, 2008 at 5:41 pm
Wow and they didnt catch this guy??? That’s gotta suck.
February 21st, 2008 at 8:23 am
Wow. That’s odd. It should be easy to find him. Lol
