Armed Man in Wheelchair Allegedly Holds up Shop with Feet


Occurred on May 25, 2020 / Canela, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil

Info from Licensor: "The alleged crime was attempted by a 19-year-old mute in a wheelchair. With no arm movements due to cerebral palsy, he used his feet to deliver a note with the theft notice 'pass everything, do not call attention.' Also with his feet, he pointed a gun at the merchant. A passerby saw the action and called the Military Brigade, which arrested the young man. The gun was a replica. The note had been written by him with his feet.
The boy came with the electric chair and stood in the corner. A client put 5 reais in his pocket before he left. We thought he wanted donations. I also took pity and gave money."
