A 93 year old man is KO'd by a thief, he wakes up, grabs his gun...

The hearing aids would've been his biggest take that night. They cost a couple thousand a piece.

Who honestly buys a used hearing aid anyways? That's too much like buying used underwear to me...

My dad has a 'used' hearing aid. The part you stick in your ear is custom moulded to each person, and the electronic amplification/bone induction portion can be swapped out between individuals. The technology has remained relatively stagnant for a few years, and given the ridiculous cost of new units, the guy could have reasonably scored a couple hundred a piece for them.

Never heard of receiving stolen property before? As far as I know, it's still a crime to buy/receive something that any reasonable person would conclude has been stolen.

Theft by receiving = buying a stereo out of the back of some dude's car

Not theft by receiving = buying a stereo that was stolen but then sold to a pawn shop, etc

The first, a normal person would think something shady is going on, the second, it's kind of hard to have a good idea whether or not it's hot.
 
The old guy should press charges for the theft of the bullet he "took" with him also.:icon_rage

Good one for the good guys, piece of crap is lucky the old man didn't unload the other 5 rounds on him.
