COLUMBUS, Ga. (AP) -- Columbus police arrested a man in a wheelchair after he allegedly stole a woman's purse early Saturday and then spit in an officer's face. Police said a 51-year-old man approached a 49-year-old woman who was reclining on a couch in the lobby of their apartment building with her brown purse beside her.

Sounds like a handy-kaper incident.

When did this jerk roll into town? He's lame. He should ramp up his common sense. Purse snatching is a crutch and all he has is a limp excuse. His brain certainly doesn't appear to be accessible and that doesn't sit well with me. He's not going forward, he's going placard.
