Mamdani’s Paradise: Thug Steals Car with Elderly Blind Man Inside, Dumps Him Miles Away from Man’s Terrified Wife
Welcome to Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s New York City — where, if the homeless aren’t left to freeze to death due to the “warmth of collectivism,” the cold shoulder to the rule of law leaves carjackers free to steal vehicles with elderly blind men inside and then dump them miles away.
In the Long Island City neighborhood of Queens, a 34-year-old thought he would be perfectly fine leaving his blind 72-year-old father inside his Subaru while he made a quick run into Target on Jan. 17, the New York Post reported.
Instead, a man jumped into the car and took off with the elderly man in tow.
Both the car and the man were found three miles away at 53rd Avenue and 44th Street. WABC-TV reported that the suspect had fled the scene before police arrived.
There were no injuries.
“He was in the car, but he’s blind — he didn’t know what was happening,” said the man’s wife, who asked not to be named.
“He didn’t complain because he’s not really aware.”
The thief, according to the man’s wife, said nothing as he drove off, with the blind man completely confused; it later emerged that he has dementia.
“He’s calling my son, but nobody answered,” she said.
The son, meanwhile, noticed something was amiss when he left Target.
