So this morning around 10:00 I am on our loading dock in downtown Louisville drinking coffee and inspecting damage on some custom equipment I had fabricated. It's a relatively safe area, the usual business folk, construction workers a few blocks down, Humana Health-care corporate office the next block over with security milling about etc. I notice 4 black kids about halfway down the block sitting on a ledge as they have been all morning. As i head back to my office there are now only a few scattered people on the sidewalk as everyone has reached their destination for the day. All of the sudden I hear people arguing, I look down the block and see the 4 kids wailing away in a lone heavy-set,middle aged guy. Dude is on the ground bloodied, his wallet is ripped from his pants and the kids run off. One of the kids sucker punched the guy as he walked by while the other three knocked him to the ground and robbed him, it was over befor i realized what had happened. I run over to the guy as he calls 911 on his cell phone. I then hand him over to Humana security who help him inside their building. My day goes by and I am pretty pissed about the situation. Around an hour ago (3:30) I am back on the loading dock when the guy who was mugged came up to me and let me know they caught the kids at a local McDonald's three blocks over but where unable to find his wallet and money. Turns out directly after the mugging I witnessed, the kids mugged another guy and beat him up pretty good befor heading to the local McD's. I guess they needed a McGriddle pretty bad. The kicker was that the kids where between 17 and 13 years old. F'n 13 years old. WTF It's fall break and they are out of school, so instead of riding bikes or playing as "normal" 13 year olds they decide to mug and beat random people.
