Sir Creep 7,070 Posted January 4, 2019 Not even a death, but what a moniker. Sorry, HAVE to post it. "A 21-year-old Las Vegas woman was being sought Thursday for allegedly using a stolen car to run over and kill a Las Vegas nail salon owner who chased her last weekend for failing to pay for a $35 manicure, police said. Las Vegas police released storefront security video footage of the Saturday afternoon incident along with a plea for information on the whereabouts of the suspect, Krystal Whipple." Oh shit, it gets funnier: "Sonny Chung said that he tried in vain to stop the suspect. "I tried to hold the car back, but I'm not Superman. She ran off for $35 and killed my wife — $35 to run my wife over." If you don't find that quote funny as hell we can't be friends. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
