The lowest of the low
There's been a shocking update in the ongoing story of Jed, the three-year-old boy accidentally run over by a lawnmower in Pelham. It's not about his condition - the boy remains in critical condition at SickKids in Toronto. It's about something nobody could have expected: some criminal lowlife took advantage of this tragic situation to rob the family home.
According to the Niagara Regional Police, two ATVs were stolen from the home on Saturday night, while Jed's family were at the hospital. The incident is currently under investigation and no other information has been released as of yet.
I suppose there really is no such thing as honour among thieves, and this is proof. What kind of person could look at a situation that left a toddler clinging to life in hospital, and wonder how they could take advantage of it for their own gain? I can think of many names to call such a person, but I won't write them here. Suffice to say, this guy/gal is low enough to win a limbo contest at the Thorold Jail once they're caught.
Anyone who would like to help Jed can contribute to this GoFundMe page.
