If that were me I'd be 4'10" and wearing a red cap by tomorrow.

And I'm a three legged man with a two legged woman
Being chased around the country by a one legged fool
He' a hopping and flopping, and he shows no sign of stopping
And I tell you Boys, this life is awful cruel

Run JaForrest! Run!

Does that weight estimate include in his prostetics, include no prostetics or is it his pre-amputation weight?

/I'm just trying to get an idea of his build.

whatshisname		2012-02-20 04:09:11 PM

I bet the police are stumped.

Nemo's Brother		2012-02-20 04:10:39 PM

That's a few blocks from my house. I'm so proud.

DavidVincent		2012-02-20 04:12:06 PM

P'Nokio.

oldfarthenry		2012-02-20 04:14:01 PM

Shouldn't his REAL height be shorter than 5'6" cuz of the prosthetic legs? Or did he stand 7'6" (legs included)?

DavidVincent		2012-02-20 04:15:19 PM

Just a pirate, keepin' it real.

h2oincfs		2012-02-20 04:15:35 PM

the game's afoot!

chookbillion		2012-02-20 04:15:53 PM

Did he get stuck in the sand at all?

silverblues		2012-02-20 04:17:54 PM

When they catch him, this guy won't have a leg to stand on

BeerGraduate		2012-02-20 04:22:28 PM

I had a buddy/roomate with prosthetic legs and was surprised by his near 100% mobility. Technology can be a wonderful thing.

/was just as athletic as anyone else in the complex
//also a wrestler in high school

KaiserRoll		2012-02-20 04:23:30 PM

Next you're gonna tell me the one armed man did it.

farm machine		2012-02-20 04:24:22 PM

If only there were something unique about this guy to go on. Odds are that there's at least 2 other people in the area that could fit this description.

Ehhh, that sweatshirt's more of a charcoal.

cgraves67		2012-02-20 04:26:49 PM

He should find a guy with no arms to team up with to properly rob pharmacies.

DysphoricMania		2012-02-20 04:27:34 PM

Heard as the suspect fled the scene: "Tink tink tink tink tink tink tink...."

/Poor lil Tinktink

DavidVincent		2012-02-20 04:28:13 PM

The boy has issues.

Rapmaster2000		2012-02-20 04:29:26 PM

Suspect is legless! I repeat, legless!

groppet		2012-02-20 04:29:52 PM

A man with a wooden leg named smith?

What was the name of his other leg?

I lolled until i coughed.

Gyrfalcon		2012-02-20 04:32:34 PM

Goes by the name of "Lucky."

MoronLessOff		2012-02-20 04:34:10 PM

So, did he have a getaway car, or did he flee on foot?

Amos Quito		2012-02-20 04:34:33 PM

That was no "man".

Sticky Hands		2012-02-20 04:39:06 PM

wooden legs, but real feet.

SquiggelyGrounders		2012-02-20 04:41:39 PM

Another case of police prejudice against cripples.

Plant Rights Activist		2012-02-20 04:46:10 PM

don't underestimate someone using prosthetics

BizarreMan		2012-02-20 04:47:56 PM

I think we need some additional clarification on this. FTFA "He appeared to have two prosthetic legs". It doesn't say he was using them. He could have them in a bag.

fappomatic		2012-02-20 04:49:04 PM

Nemo's Brother: That's a few blocks from my house. I'm so proud.

And he was right down the street from the headquarters of the Va State Police. Midlo, represent!

I think the bloodles receive their share of police attention, too.

KrispyKritter		2012-02-20 04:53:06 PM

prosthetic my arse. cyborg crime is on the rise.

Ehh		2012-02-20 04:53:31 PM

What kind of nose does he have?

macross87		2012-02-20 04:58:41 PM

I would have also accepted, "looks like Lt. Dan is robbing drug stores in black face."

LDM90		2012-02-20 05:04:26 PM

Police added the suspect may or may not have a tattoo.

HTH

coralfixation		2012-02-20 05:21:49 PM

Was he wearing a "Kiss me, I'm Polish" shirt?

I'll admit that one makes more sense.

Does there have to be a twist? did he have a supple wrist? How do you think he does it ?

Crazy Lee		2012-02-20 06:36:04 PM

Hey, ambition! Definitely some kind of `strappy'.

Positives: Fewer innervated munch points for the police dogs//Much `improved' dose/response curve... (only has to get away with about half as much) Really needs to trot out some better plans.

urban.derelict		2012-02-20 06:57:50 PM

/fark is slippin'

Amos Quito		2012-02-20 07:20:54 PM

To be fair, I would imagine that being a double amputee might be a bit PAINFUL.

Do you suppose his doctor "cut off" his prescription?

Dow Jones and the Temple of Doom		2012-02-20 07:21:49 PM

"The prosthetic legs appeared to be covered in Louis Vuitton upholstery"
