Crime in Ottawa

Postby The Supreme Canuck » Thu Mar 13, 2014 5:15 pm

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Johnny Scratch:

The 39-year-old had just pulled into his Raymond Street driveway early Wednesday morning when he was approached by three men who demanded the keys to his car. When Scratch refused to hand them over, the men attacked and a fight ensued.

[...]

Whether by luck or because he outmatched his attackers in height, weight and adrenalin-fuelled moxy, Scratch was able to fend off the three assailants, who fled west down Raymond Street.

The condition of the assailants, who are still at large, remains unknown, but Scratch sustained only one injury: A scratch on his knuckle, from breaking the tooth of one of the men, which he threw at them as they fled.

[...]

Despite success holding his own against three carjackers and a slew of other attackers over the years, Scratch, a vaudeville stage performer with the troupe The Mansfield Brothers, condemns violence.

“I don’t like violence, violence sucks,” he said. “It does. It’s brutal. But I’m not going to be pushed around.”

Ottawa police are searching for the suspects.


...there's a lot of WTF there.

If it had been in Caracas, it would have involved guns and at least one casualty.

If it was in the USA it would be either a black guy that got shot or a black guy that did the shooting.
At least it seems that way going by the news.
