Old Bag Walking With Cane Hit, Injured Crossing Street
Police: Hit-And-Run Driver Arrested, Later Released
WILMINGTON, Del. -- State police said a 78-year-old bag who needed a cane to walk was struck and injured Sunday in Wilmington.
Police said the old bag had been warned by area motorists to stay off the streets. Local residents recounted the numerous warnings they often shouted at her, including “stay inside”, “this isn’t your home”, and “this doesn’t concern you”.
Initially police arrested the driver, 37-year-old Jesus El Toro of Wilmington, on charges including leaving the scene of an accident and driving with an expired license and no insurance, however Jesus was later released when he explained that the old bag rejected warnings to mind her own business and stay inside.
The “accident” occurred shortly before noon on Maryland Avenue, just east of Robinson Lane. Police said the “accident” “victim” was crossing the street where she didn’t belong when she was struck by El Toro's car. She was taken to Christiana Hospital, where she made a quick recovery.
Police said El Toro initially stopped prior to hitting the old bag, but then “stepped on it” when he noticed who it was.
The old bag has been sited for nagging, old bagging and sagging.

Wait! I have to ask. Was that the expression that was on her face as Jesus barreled towards her at 65 mph? Was the picture snapped by one of those Camera Cops posted at an intersection? ( *Click* here’s your ticket!) I thought I heard on the radio that the old bag died? Oh I know . . . you changed the facts for two reasons . . . The first is so you won’t experience any guilt for abusing the elderly and the second is so your mom won’t get mad when you give her the link to this site! I love the look on her face. It says, “OH! Your headlight is out!”
There’s an old bat that walks past our building a couple of times a day. I think she’s either schizophrenic or has some major type of disease that makes it impossible for her to lead a fucked up life like the rest of us. She wears the same thing every day (for the last 16 years) – Gray sweatpants, a gray sweatshirt and shoes made out of gray electrical tape (I swear to god). She also is never seen without her two trusty sidekicks – the two plastic shopping bags she carries in each hand. And I’m positive they’re filled with nothing but additional plastic bags (you can just tell). And when it rains, she still walks by but she’ll wear a big clear trash bag over her with just her head and arms popping out. A long time ago, someone told me she was a prostitute, but didn’t believe them. Do you remember her from when we worked together? She used to walk down Market Street all of the time.
I was sitting here thinking, "wait, I remember her" the reasons she sticks out in my mind is the duct tape and the clear plastic bag when its raining.
Secondly, yes I do often "borrow" from the headlines and if the story is in any way sad, I change it. Don't worry, my mom isn't ever getting the link to this site, unless I can't afford to pay off the blackmailers.
