A 21-year-old robbery suspect was jailed in Luzerne County thanks to the efforts of the 71-year-old victim and his friend in a wheelchair.
Harry Kopenis, said he went to an ATM at a bank near his Kingston home Monday morning and withdrew $100 when a woman came out of nowhere, knocked him down and stole the money. The woman fled.
His neighbor, Kevin Lamb, was nearby in his electric wheelchair and both men chased her. Lamb said Kopenis got the woman in a headlock and grabbed the squirming woman.

Worst. Getaway. Ever.
Boy, I bet in the criminal world, it's probably pretty damn embarrassing when you get taken down by such an easy mark. Not to mention his wheelchair-bound friend:
How slow do you have to be to get caught by a septuagenarian and a dude riding a rascal? I mean, was she crawling away from them or something?
