An elderly lady did her shopping and, upon returning to her car,
found
four males in the act of leaving with her vehicle. She dropped
her
shopping bags, drew her handgun, and proceeded to scream at them at
the
top of her voice, "I have a gun and I know how to use it! Get out
of
the car, you scumbags!"
The four men didn't wait for a second invitation, but got out and
ran
like mad.
The lady, somewhat shaken, proceeded to load her shopping bags in
the
back of the car and get into the driver's seat. She was so shaken
that
she could not get her key into the ignition. She tried and tried,
to no
avail.
And then it dawned on her why.
A few minutes later, she found her own car parked four or five
spaces
farther down. She loaded her bags into her car and drove to the
police
station.
The sergeant to whom she told the story nearly tore himself in two
with
laughter and pointed to the other end of the counter, where four
pale
males were reporting a carjacking by a mad elderly woman described
as
white, less than five feet tall, glasses, curly white hair,
and
carrying a large handgun.
No charges were filed.
