Crime of the century

One of the better things about Buffalo is the Buffalo News crime reports. My personal favorite was the man who was shot while sitting on the toilet at the Buffalo Tourist Lodge on Main and didn’t even realize it until the next day.

This one is close to the top though

A Buffalo man was robbed of five cents Tuesday night by two teenage boys outside his home in the 2700 block of Main Street, near East Amherst Street, police said.

Northwest District police said the victim was confronted at about 10 p. m. by two boys, described as 14 to 16 years old. The boys demanded money and displayed a gun covered by a cloth. They took the man’s cash and ran.
