Sure, Suns fans here are idiots, but I'm not sure what this article has to do with them.
Thieves Steal From Dying Hit-And-Run Victim
MESA, Ariz. -- An elderly man was struck by a hit-and-run driver and as he lay dying, thieves made off with his groceries.
Mesa police said the victim was waiting for a bus after grocery shopping Tuesday evening.
Witnesses said the driver of a pickup swerved off the road and onto the sidewalk in west Mesa.
The driver fled the scene after crashing through the bus stop, police said.
Boro Mitrovich said he was sitting close to the old man when the victim was hit. "He didn't even know what happened," said Mitrovich, 51, of Mesa, who dove out of the way. "The old man took the brunt of it," he said.
The elderly man was thrown across a parking lot, landing in front of a restaurant and a pawn and loan shop.
It was there that witnesses said people in the parking lot "began picking up the groceries and taking them," said Mesa police spokesman Detective Steve Berry.
As he was checking on the victim, Mitrovich said his groceries were also stolen. "One minute it's on the ground, the next minute it's gone," Mitrovich said.
If caught, the people who stole the groceries could face theft charges, Berry said.
Police, using a helicopter, tracked the driver of the pickup truck to an apartment complex less than two miles from the hit-and-run scene.
By the time police got there, the driver had ditched the truck and fled, Berry said.
The front of the truck was mangled and missing a headlight. A white plastic shopping bag was still stuck to the grill.
Police were interviewing residents at the apartment complex late Tuesday trying to get a description of the driver, but they did not have a suspect, Berry said.
The driver likely will face felony charges of leaving the scene of a fatal crash, Berry said.
Police didn't release the iden y of the victim.

Sure, Suns fans here are idiots, but I'm not sure what this article has to do with them.
Why? This has nothing to do with Suns fans. You give Spurs fans a bad name, nozzle.
What does it have to do with the Suns?
I get what you trying to do but this was a pretty lame attempt.
post the article where that Spur fan picked up a dog to it
Not cool.
Bad play, Spurs fan.
lame
If the initial poster had just left the words "Suns" and "Fans" out of the le you may have been able to pull it off. Otherwise unnecessary inflammatory misplaced rhetoric.
That was cold blooded however what the looters did. Sure hope they catch the hit and run driver.
Don't suns fans live in Arizona?
I don't see how this post is lame simply because I can imagine suns fans doing that type of nonsense so.........
This thread gets my approval.
Mesa, AZ is to Phoenix what Ft. Worth is to Dallas, so I'm pretty sure the idiots that did this are fans of the Phoenix Suns. The thread is directed at the fans and not the team.
That's (sort of) like saying everyone who lives in Boerne is necessarily a Spurs fan. It's a horrendous generalization because it's absolutely untrue.
all this thread proves is that you're a moron
Lighten up, it's just humor.
You people take things way to seriously.
So a bunch of lowlifes rob a hurt poor old man, and suddenly all Suns fans did it? Don't get me wrong, I dislike Suns fans as much as the next guy, but this was pretty damn lame
If you spurs fans can't imagine a suns fan doing that to some poor old man then......
nothing.
Why would you say that about people from Boerne? I think people from Boerne are great fans of the Spurs. For you to accuse them of not supporting the Spurs is sickening IMHO.
Why would you say what you've said about people from Mesa?
What? That they support the local team? OMG, how horrible of me!!!
I am from Phoenix. I'm pretty sure I know more about what Mesa is than you do.
Anyway, this was a lame attempt at humor. Someone got hurt/robbed and you make some weird sweeping generalization about the people/fans of the area.
No big deal, I get what you are trying to do, but it was just lame.
I can go pull 100 news stories about thieves, murders, rapists, child molesters in San Antonio and make some statements and ridiculously apply them to Spurs fans too.
It would probably be hilarious on a website devoted to the Phoenix Suns. I guess Phoenix fan knows good comedy. Sad that the same can't be said of Spurs fan.
Good comedy? I bet you crack yourself up don't you?
