From the Associated Press:
Pennsylvania police say an 89-year-old woman used her cane to dent the car of two people who stole her friend's purse, and authorities were able to track down the getaway car based in part on the cane's imprint.
New Castle police Chief Thomas Sansone says the woman and her 82-year-old friend were accosted outside a pizza shop Sunday. Police say 27-year-old Jerry Brown Jr. grabbed the purse but couldn't peel away before the 89-year-old banged the car's trunk with her cane.

Don't mess with women who use canes!

Great story. I was at a minor league baseball game last week & was getting a kick out of an elderly woman who would wave her cane in the air and cheer whenever her team got a hit.
And I learned what equanimous means.

They said Governor Brown was getting serious about California's fiscal problems. Finally, there's proof.

I hope the word "whippersnappers" was also involved.
