Tonight I was walking home from Earnestine & Hazel’s about 2:30 AM.\u00a0 Outside the fire station at Main and Butler I saw a group of guys all listening to a stranger.\u00a0 One of the group recognized me from the blog.\u00a0 “Hey, Paul!” he said.<\/p>\n

Then I recognized the stranger the group was talking to.\u00a0 “Hey, Jumper Cable Guy, what’s up!” I said.\u00a0 Hang on, let’s post a pic of Jumper Cable Guy.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jumper Cable Guy has a truck that breaks down a LOT.\u00a0 Like, many times a day.\u00a0 So he’s forced to go out on the streets and ask for 7 dollars and some odd change to buy jumper cables.\u00a0 If you have cables to loan him he’ll tell you that he drives a Ford F-250 and that he needs bigger cables than the ones you have.\u00a0 So he just needs the money.\u00a0 His truck breaks down all over town, multiple times a week.\u00a0 Not that he’s scamming anyone.\u00a0 I wouldn’t want to give anyone the impression that he’s a scammer.\u00a0 His truck just breaks down a lot.<\/p>\n

Someone advise me… what’s the best way to get rid of this guy?\u00a0 There’s got to be something stronger than a violation of the panhandling law he can be charged with.\u00a0 I know I have lawyers and cops that read the blog… what can be done about him?\u00a0 Several others in the group of guys I met – a bachelor party – reported encounters with him, same story, in the past couple of weeks.<\/p>\n

Good meeting “J-Wright” (the groom) and his buddies tonight.\u00a0 More to come in the morning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
