So much for the "right to bear arms"
Crook’s arm ripped off after failed robbery attempt | New York Post
A driver being robbed at gunpoint used his car as a weapon, and pinned the runaway robber to a fence in such a way that his arm got amputated. Both people will face charges.
Taxpayers will probably get stuck with the bill for emergency surgery, and prosecuting both people in this case.
Sorry for the bad joke, but that was the first comment that came to my mind.
This is really horrifying and tragic. I shouldn't make fun of this, but I couldn't resist.
Someone shoot me! I mean, slap me!

disarming story said:“I saw a kid under a car,” said Alex Saint Fleur, a bus driver who lives across the street.
“The guy ran him over. He got out, the driver said, ‘He’s trying to rob me. He’s trying to rob me.’”
“I saw the gun on the floor,” Fleur added. “The arm was on the floor near the gun.”
The teen got out from under the car, he said, and ran inside a city bus.
“Everyone is screaming, ‘Come back, come back, your arm. You’re bleeding too much,’” Fleur said.
The crook got out of the bus and started running down Avenue M, he said, before finally collapsing in the street. The teen was taken to Brookdale Hospital, where he remains in serious but stable condition, law enforcement sources said. The 39-year-old driver will likely be arrested, according to police sources. On Friday afternoon, the bus was pulled over on 80th Street, blood spattered on its front entrance. “I was walking up the sidewalk and I heard a boom behind me,” said a postal worker who declined to give her name. “I just kept it moving. I saw somebody run on the bus with a missing arm.”
