Stockton Man Beaten -- With His Own Artificial Leg
Stockton Man Beaten -- With His Own Artificial Leg

STOCKTON, CA - Police are looking for three suspects who attacked an elderly couple early Wednesday evening and used an unusual weapon to attack them -- the man's artificial leg.

Ma Khamchai, 66, and his wife, 62 year-old Noi were walking near their Lindsay Street home when they were confronted by two women and a man who demanded Noi's purse.

Ma fought back, kicking at his attackers, but in the scuffle his artificial leg came off. The robbers then used the leg to beat the couple.

The three got the purse and fled the scene.

2. And he can't take the case to court because
he doesn't have a leg to stand on.

Thank you. I'll be here weakly.

4. Actually, no, it's because the legal fees would've cost him an arm and a
few thousand bucks. :evilgrin:

5. Maybe a good samaritan will help him foot the bill
for a good lawyer.

Or at least lend a hand in some way.

6. I hope they find these attackers
and that they have enough evidence to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt they are guilty.
