A Robbery

I am on day shift now. I hate the hours but love being home with the family. Last Friday about 0730 I was dispatched to a disturbance where someone had taken money from my complainant.

I got to the call and saw that my complainant was 84 years old. He was sitting in a pick up truck with a known prostitute. They told me that another woman had come up to them and demanded money from the man. The woman, who was another known prostitute, then choked the man and took $5 from his shirt pocket. That made it a robbery.

It was hard to feel sympathetic to the man. He does not live in that part of town and has no business there. It was apparent why he was with the woman he was with.

What a way to start the day.
