Email I received from Jakes Aunt, who is a RN.
When I renewed my CPR the last time, the EMT who was teaching it said to be careful of someone lying on a driveway who appears unresponsive, that if you go to check on them, there may be someone hiding and waiting to rob you/do you harm. Call 911 and be very watchful and careful.
Sent: Wednesday, January 12, 2011 11:07 AM Subject: FW: ATTORNEY GENERAL ..THIS IS IMPORTANT READ Please be very careful While driving on a rural end of the roadway on Thursday morning, I saw an infant car seat on the side of the road with a blanket draped over it. For whatever reason, I did not stop, even though I had all kinds of thoughts running through my head. But when I got to my destination, I called the Canton PD and they were going to check it out. But, this is what the Police advised even before they went out there to check.... "There are several things to be aware of gangs and thieves are now plotting different ways to get a person (mostly women) to stop their vehicle and get out of the car. "There is a gang initiation reported by the local Police Department where gangs are placing a car seat by the road...with a fake baby in it...waiting for a woman, of course, to stop and check on the abandoned baby. "Note that the location of this car seat is usually beside a wooded or grassy (field) area and the person woman will be dragged into the woods, beaten and raped, and usually left for dead. If it's a man, they're usually beaten and robbed and maybe left for dead, too. DO NOT STOP FOR ANY REASON!!! DIAL 911 AND REPORT WHAT YOU SAW, BUT DON 'T EVEN SLOW DOWN. "IF YOU ARE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND EGGS ARE THROWN AT YOUR WINDSHIELD, DO NOT STOP TO CHECK THE CAR, DO NOT OPERATE THE WIPER AND DO NOT SPRAY ANY WATER BECAUSE EGGS MIXED WITH WATER BECOME MILKY AND BLOCK YOUR VISION UP TO 92.5%, AND YOU ARE THEN FORCED TO STOP BESIDE THE ROAD AND BECOME A VICTIM OF THESE CRIMINALS. THESE ARE NEW TECHNIQUES USED BY GANGS, SO PLEASE INFORM YOUR FRIENDS AND RELATIVES. THESE ARE DESPERATE TIMES AND THESE ARE UNSAVORY INDIVIDUALS WHO WILL TAKE DESPERATE MEASURES TO GET WHAT THEY WANT." Please talk to your loved ones about this. These new tactics used. Please be safe. Cynthia (Cyndi) Bailey Office of the Attorney General Crime Victim Compensation Division P.O. Box 220 Jackson , MS 392050220 6013596766 6015764445 Fax

Good info Calvin! How many women could resist stopping to check on the welfare of a baby?

Thanks Calvin, that was great! I was born in 1947 but do remember some of the events in that presentation. The cars of course, I had a 49 Chevy 2 door. Do Wop was my music, all in all I'm more a 50's guy. There was a lot of good times, simple times, no fuss, no muss, just good times.
