Mesa....... (This is sad)
Did you hear the one about the old man who was run over, and then his groceries were stolen?
Suspect Identified In Fatal Hit-And-Run - Local News Story - KPHO Phoenix
This is sad but real. The kicker is when the good samaritan gets his groceries stolen while he's distracted.

Worse than SAD, ptbrennan . . . more like DISGUSTING!
Whenever we think we've seen and/or heard it all . . . something like this happens!

This a great example of the type of "lowlife-human trash" that is attracted to the Phoenix area. I dont miss this place at all.

Why... the country is doing "grrrreat!" Haven't you heard on TV?! Greater than great! Maybe some people already need to steal groceries under any circumstances!  I personally can't imagine how even a couple (never mind a single) can possibly live on 2 minimum wages. Having kids on such incomes is totally beyond me.

that was horrible, insult to injury wasen't it? I hope the police nab the people that took advantage of that tragedy. Hard to imagine someone would steal the bags of someone laying in the street

More construction layoffs will bring more crime.

Witnesses said the driver of a dark GMC pickup, later identified as 23-year-old Alan Ricardo Flores-Ocon, swerved off the road and onto the sidewalk near Main Street and Horne
