This is a true account recorded in the Police Log of Sarasota,
Florida.
An elderly Florida lady did her shopping and, upon returning to her
car, found four males in the act of leaving with her vehicle. She
dropped her shopping bags and drew her handgun, proceeding to scream
at
the top of her lungs, "I have a gun, and I know how to use it!
Get out of the car!" The four men didn't wait for a second threat.
They got out and ran like mad.
The lady, somewhat shaken, then proceeded to load her shopping bags
into the back of the car and got into the driver's seat. She was so
shaken that she could not get her key into the ignition. She tried and
tried, and then she realized why, ... it was for the same reason she
had
wondered why there was a football, a Frisbee and two 12 packs of beer
in
the front seat. A few minutes later, she found her own car parked four
or five spaces farther down. She lo waded her bags into the car and
drove
to the police station to report her mistake. The sergeant to whom she
told the story couldn't stop laughing. He pointed to the other end of
the counter, where four pale men were reporting a car jacking by a
mad,
elderly woman described as white, less than five feet tall, glasses,
curly white hair, and carrying a large handgun. No charges were filed.
Moral of the story?
