3121...VPD Steps Up

Police in Vancouver are urging citizens to be on lookout for a mugger last seen wearing a Vancouver Curling Club coat and white toque. Hockey rinks, Tim Hortons shops on high alert.

In all seriousness the fact is that, as The Vancouver Sun reports, crimes perpetuated upon seniors are rife in Vancouver, so frequent that the VPD in 2008, prompted by an increase in crimes that targeted older and less-abled people, launched an undercover sting in the downtown east side.

Ten people were arrested in the exercise dubbed "Operation Oldtimer" which you can search on You Tube.
