Stealing pumpkins in a Lincoln Navigator? This is one dumb crook with his values on backwards. Sheesh.

They can afford to drive a Lincoln Navigator but can’t afford to buy pumpkins ?

>>>The victim was driven home and taken to the hospital by his mother, according to police.<<<

Shouldn’t this read, “The perpetrator was arrested on charges of trespassing and attempted larceny and taken to the county jail pending a bail hearing?”

How is a thief the “victim”?

The title makes it sounds like the pumpkins were stealing and someone shot them.

Driving a Lincoln Navigator but stealing pumpkins?

Maybe they were going to trade the stolen pumpkins for gasoline.

This sounds like a college prank. People who drive Lincoln Navigators don’t need to steal pumpkins to feed their hungry children. I hope he learned his lesson.

Having said that, once the crime has been stopped, to shoot at a fleeing perp crosses the line to vigilante justice.

Garcia that no suspects have been identified.

The "suspect" got what he deserved.

"...four shots were fired at the vehicle, striking the 19-year-old in the back, Garcia said. The victim was driven home and taken to the hospital by his mother, according to police. The wound was not life threatening, Garcia said."

I'm wondering what the shooter was packing - shotgun loaded with rock salt, maybe?

Or maybe the kid was just plain lucky. Either way, bet he doesn't try to steal punkins from around there anymore.

Under the impending socialist regime, everyone will be given equal access to pumpkins. They will no longer need to be stolen or protected by evil firearms.
