Homeless Man Drives Stolen Backhoe To Former Vice Mayor’s House, Steals Biden Yard Signs
quote:

A homeless man stole a backhoe from a construction site in Polk County, Florida over the weekend and took Biden campaign signs while driving the machinery through a Haines City neighborhood in Florida.

After stealing the backhoe, James Blight drove through the neighborhood to the home of former Vice Mayor of Haines City, Adam Burgess, according to Fox 13.

quote:

Once at Burgess’s house, Blight exited the backhoe and stole multiple Biden signs from Burgess’s front yard, reports Fox 13.

Blight was later charged with grand theft auto and trespassing after police found Blight driving the backhoe after the incident, according to NBC 2.

“Blight told police that he had been drinking whiskey all day and did not remember most of the day,” Mike Ferguson, public information officer for Haines City Police, said to NBC. After the incident, police said that Blight did not seem impaired when interacting with detectives.

Burgess claimed that the incident was caused by President Donald Trump’s rhetoric, according to WCBD News 2.

Burgess said, “It emboldens people that are racist and that are biased and that think that they are superior to other groups of people based on the color of their skin.”




Of course

Dude's just looking to book his Winter stay in a warm comfortable jail cell. 3 hots and a cot, then out for Spring.

This homeless man should find a good lawyer and sue him for these statements. He has no proof that this man is racist or biased or has any feelings of superiority to anyone.
