That monk was one tough character. That thug could have had a gun but the monk is rolling around in the street with him.

He may not win the lottery, but on his deathbed he will receive total consciousness. So he has that going for him, which is nice.

A Buddhist monk hoping to win a lot of money? Must be an Algore supporter.

More of the story:

PHILADELPHIA — Police are searching for a man who was caught on video robbing a Buddhist monk as he bought lottery tickets in a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, convenience store.

Police said the 61-year-old monk was at a Sunoco gas station store on South Broad Street buying lottery tickets from a machine on Jan. 3 when an unidentified black male snatched $350 in cash from the monk’s hands and ran out of the door.

The monk is then seen on video chasing the man into the gas station parking lot, where they engage into a physical struggle. The monk is thrown to the ground, sustaining a cut to the leg, but soon gets up and approaches the robber’s vehicle before it drives off.

Police said they’re searching for the newer dark silver For Mustang with a Pennsylvania license plate that reads JHY-3783.

Anyone with information about the incident or the man shown in the video is asked to contact Det. McIntyre with the South Detective Division at 215-686-3334, or submit a confidential tip by calling 215-686-8477 (TIPS) or texting a tip to PPD TIP or 773847.

If they have the plate number, why don't they just go pick him up?

“3. Buddhist monk is in Philly”

I read a very good article by a Buddhist monk in Boston about why he has a conceal carry permit. It came down to the idea that if he wasn’t willing to defend himself, how could he expect himself to defend others.
