Since I posted the story “She made a confession” I have heard from three others, who have had some of the same problems.
One is from a guy, (W, C.) and here is the story as I understood it. He drove his car to a local hardware store, was in the store for a half hour or so, when he came out, his car was gone. He called the police and reported it stolen. Ten days later the police came to get him. The city attorney said, a letter was sent to him from the court system. He had ten days to show the court why he should not have to pay damages that was done to the entry way of a drug store. So a bench warrant was issued for his arrest.
He spoke to the City prosecutor find out what this was all about. The City prosecutor said the insurance company for the drug store, had filed for restitution payment of damages. The court had sent an order for him to appear in court and he failed to do so. The complaint said that he and his car had caused Thirty thousand dollars, of damage to the entry way of the drug store.
He told them he had not caused the damage and that the car was reported stolen that same day. It took the police thirty four days to find the car, it was towed to the Cities pound lot. W.C. said it took over a year to find evidence in the case. But they had found on the day in question, other people saw a little old lady going from vehicles to vehicle looking inside of them. Then she backed a three quarter ton truck out of a parking spot and all the way across to the next row of parked cars. When she drove forward, the truck and a car were hooked together, She drove out of the parking lot, turned left to go down one block and made a right turn.
She cut the corner too close and that bump made the vehicles separate . As she drove on, (apparently unaware), the car when across the street up over the curb and stopped at the entrance of the store. The lady didn’t own the truck and it had also been reported stolen. The name of the lady was never learned and W.C’s insurance had to pay the damages.
Story two: A women of some years, apparently went up and down the line of a parking lot, looking for a car with the keys that were left in a vehicle. When she found one, she would get in and drive away. That year there were over fifty stolen car reports made in the city. When they caught the lady, she never understood what they were saying about stolen cars. She just smiled and wanted to visit with them. They told the old one she needed a license to drive and she said, “No” I don’t need a license, because I don’t own a car. They told her, the cars she was driving were reported as stolen. That’s what happens when they leave the keys in their cars. She said the people at the tore told her, she could use any of the carts in the parking lot. When she was asked what her age was, she said I am 95 0r 97, I am not sure! Case Dismissed.
Story Three: These two ladies always go shopping together. Even when they don’t need anything they will be seen at any store, going up and down the isles, They each pushed a cart around and one will hardly ever see anything in them. When they left the store, they would push the shopping cart all the way home, which was about fifteen blocks away.
As the number of shopping carts at the store became smaller and smaller, the manager asked all the store personal to keep an eye open and maybe they could learn where the carts were disappearing to.
Then one day a carry-out boy was helping a lady and he pushed her cart out to her car. But she was unable to find it. So the store manager told her to use the cart to get her order home and the Cart could be returned later. A little later, the carry out boy decided he would do a good deed and fetch the cart back to the store for her. She was a number of blocks ahead of him, but he could see where she was going. He arrived at her house when she had opened her garage door, and found the garage packed full of the missing shopping carts. When asked what she had intended to do with all the carts,
She said ”nothing, nothing at all”. The sign said to take one, so I did!
If we didn’t have little old ladies, what would we do ??
