I have heard some of them Air Jordans go for an arm and a leg...
Shure enough they are going to charge to the man he tried to rob. But seeing IT IS NYC does that surprise anyone? Hell I wouldn't be at all surprised in NYC if they charged a rape victim with engaging in unprotected sex.
How biblically poetic, in an Old Testament kind of way.
Sew him him up and turn him loose. He stole, he lost a hand. We were just spared a trial and the time to hire somebody to cut it off.
Oh, c'mon! The guy was getting robbed (allegedly) , and (allegedly) drove off. Robber (allegedly) called it quits and was (allegedly) fleeing, victim (allegedly) turned his car around and gave (alleged) chase, and (allegedly) rammed the fleeing robber into the fence, (allegedly) severing arm.
Where does self defense end and retributive vengeance begin? Can't say the victim was scared for his life when he turned the car around and gave chase. Wasn't a good shoot.
I don't know, though... The dude turned around and chased the mope down. He no longer posed a threat to him.
