Law Enforcement Today ^ | 10/07/20 | Gregory Hoyt

A 72-year-old woman was the victim of a violent carjacking in Minneapolis on October 5th, where her alleged attackers stole her purse and vehicle, and later crashed her car during a police pursuit where the suspects died in the crash.

The victim was reportedly at a friend’s house at the time, feeding a cat that she was taking care of in her friend’s absence. That’s when three teenage suspects approached the victim and beat her in an effort to take her purse.

The community is probably trying to figure out a way to make this an excuse for more rioting and looting.

At 57 I’m not far behind you. One of my life slogans is “you’re only young once but you can always be immature.”

When I was a kid, people seemed to age faster than now. People in their 50’s and 60’s looked old, acted old and dressed old. Not anymore.

I work as a senior volunteer with a Christian youth adventure organization. One of the other senior guys, in his 70’s is taking off for his annual weeklong solo backpacking trek. (I wish I was retired)

I’m sure you’re right. Maybe in a few days they will release the names and that will probably be a big clue.

3 burials are much cheaper than 3 hots and a cot for each teen for 20 years.

Today? It should be over 80, at least.

My mom is 87 and 4 times a week she picks up 3 women over 90 and takes them to the senior center where they play cards and eat Italian food.

Well at least before the dictator wannabees shut everything down.

My uncle Joe is 92 and plays tennis and golf twice a week each and works at a soup kitchen.

When I was 10 and my grandmother was 80, she was OLD.

Never left the house, just cooked and sat in front of the TV..and prayed :)

You were supposed to act old after 70 back then.

And perhaps things that kept one incapacitated back then are treated quite well now.

Times definitely change.

>>Just out of curiosity. When does a person become “elderly”? Are we old in our 60’s and elderly in our 70”s?<<

20 years older than the writer.

I was watching an original Perry Mason the other day and this lady PAINFULLY says “you have no idea how awful it is when you grow old.” I looked her up. When the elisode aired she was 57!! A kid!

That mean old lady is responsible for the death of those sweet kids. It’s possible that a lawyer would use that lie in a suit against her.

In Minnesota the names could be anything from DeShawn to Mohammed.

Teens any more can mean 17 - 19 year-olds who are full grown and strong as an ox.

Not in this case but age doesn't necessarily indicate size and strength.

Three teenagers inside the car died in the crash. Family confirmed to FOX 9 the victims were two 15-year-olds and a 13-year-old.

To me...’elderly’ implies an older person that is infirmed.

Middle Age is always at least ten years OLDER than oneself;
provided one is between 20 and 60.
