This morning the news on the radio (WINS - N.Y.) reported an incident
where a 67 year old lady came to N.Y. to take care of her brother's 
affairs (her brother had recently passed away) from out of town.

As she left the Port Authority building, several young people surrounded
her and demanded her belongings. The lady pulls out a pearl-handled
revolver and says something like 'get out of here or you'll get this'.
The youths run away, but one goes to the police and says that this lady
harassed them with a gun.

Well, the lady was arrested and faces a year in jail or a stiff fine.
The lady has diabetes and walks with a cain.

Sounds like the Twilight Zone, to me.
