Saw the post about the stolen M below and was reminded of an incident just south of Emporia KS last week. Old man that lives much (or exactly) like a hermit along 99 Highway got took the law (or a 2X4) in his own hands. His house has no power and hasn't seen paint since the Truman Administration - looks totally abandoned. He went to eat his supper in town and returned to find to women in his home robbing the place. One of the women decided to fight it out and pick up a board and threw it at him. The man, about 65-70, picked up the board and proceeded to beat the ever lasting H*** out of both of them with it. One staggered to the highway and a car stopped thinking she had been in a car wreck. Police where called and quickly sorted it out but still kept the old man in custody overnight (where going to try and charge him with something or another). The two women ran a antique dealership in Missouri and where breaking into abandoned houses looking for stuff to steal and resell. Both suffered from numerous broked bones and the like and where arrested upon their release from the hospital. Equipment and furniture seems to disappear from deserted farmsteads real quick anymore. Need a few more stories like the one above to slow down that kind of activity.
