Homeless amputee beaten to death with own crutch
SAN DIEGO – A homeless amputee was beaten to death with his own crutch Monday night on a downtown sidewalk.
Several witnesses reported that the 41-year-old victim had gotten into an argument with another man on F Street near Eighth Avenue in the Core-Columbia neighborhood just before midnight, homicide Lt. Kevin Rooney said.
During the fight the man picked up the victim's crutch and hit him with it, said Rooney.
Paramedics tried to revive him but he died about a hour later at a trauma center.
The attacker was described as Latino and in his 30s, about 5 feet 10 inches tall and 170 pounds with a mustache and a sparse beard, Rooney said.
He was last seen near Seventh Avenue and G Street.
Police said they don't know why the men were arguing, if they knew each other or the motive for the attack.
The dead man's name has not yet been released. Rooney said he had an amputated leg and used a wheelchair but also was able to stand. He was standing when he was hit with the crutch, he said.
The man was known to stay in an alcove in front of the building where the fight took place.
Anyone with information is asked to call homicide detectives at (619) 531-2293 or Crime Stoppers at (888) 580-8477.

Don't be homeless, and don't be a fucking idiot thug. So sad and gross.
Loll weird new!

What else would you expect from a wetback? Stupid, immoral dangerous people should stay in mexico where this kind of thing is a way of life.
omg! i think my comment is one of the first!
lol i have no idea
Can I have the crutch?
leave the homeless alone! They already have enough issues
What is wrong with this country? people are just so fucked up
I hope the attacker rots in HELL. I can't believe this. Honestly, sick to my stomach.
Anybody who saw or heard anything needs to turn that fucker in. SO WRONG!

FIRST!
Hey Perez,
Thanks for posting this. It's such a sad day when it comes down to something like this. I hope this posting leads to the arrest of the low life.
-c-
are strange
Diane (#31)? You're a fucking wackjob.
This is sad. Very sad.
also this is really sad and depressing…=(
Whats wrong with our world??
why would anybody do this
Some people act like real animals when they get angry! Nasty.
thats terrible. this just shows there is no such thing as a good person at all. homeless people mind their own business (sometimes) but they mean no harm. boooooooo
I have read this news and people's discussion on 'milliona irefriends com'. Many people are very interested in this. They are discussing it there.
I know this is wrong, but all I could picture was Seinfeld and thinking that if the homeless man had a wooden leg he would have been beaten with it. I know, I'm going straight to hell. In all honesty, my condolences to the family.
Re: Dispicable – FUCK YOU!!!
what does first mean?
the 'first' thing is so annoying!! why do people have to be first especially on a post like this!?
somone dies and some of u people write "first" how fuking old are u? fukin weird internet fucks
There has to be some witnesses - for the love of God, call in and bring whoever did this to justice!
This is horrific, tragic, and appalling. That piece of trash who killed hom…
*him
Re: Darryl – First = idiots with no life, no opinions, brainless dumbfucks basically, who want to be the "first" to make a post. Yes, they are probably dumber than you may think.
What's even more unfortunate than the death of this man is the ignorance of the people on this site who would venture to generalize violence to a single ethnic background…ie "what do you expect from a wetback?" or "damn spics"…how about our president, who has MURDERED 100s of millions of innocent people overseas?…Oh yea, but you voted for him because he opposes gay marriage, and is a "christian"…people are ridicuolous. Everyone has the capacity for evil, people with power just know how to get away with it.
Re: Dispicable – ummm, how about you take your racist attitude elsewhere! Unless you are forgetting the Perez is latino, so you just insulted him….and I have read about white guys who have done worse in society! So, the cruelty is not limited to specific races, you un-educated swine! How about you take your head out of your clearly, racist ass, and not open your mouth to ever say anything!
In my neighborhood….i live on 10th and J streets!!!
That is just awful. I once saw a man's anus penetrated by his own peen peen.
Re: Yasmine – First time doing that, huh? Make it your last time too, dipshit.
This egomaniac neoliberal world is going downward…just ruffian sick people in the streets, it seems.
Re: ann –
Thank you, these losers need to stop it with the first shit. It's annoying and only solidifies the fact that the induvidual who wrote it is a total douche bag!
Re: STOP – Hey stupid fuck, hispanics aren't to blame… Dumb Bastard!
So sad
ZoeStar, how about you getting out of my country!
first off, i feel so sad about this…i cant believe people would physically fight and kill a person will a disability…but second…. i do have to say FUCK YOU to all the assholes who want to write racist comments just because this jerk was mexican. do not group idiots who fight ppl, just cuz of their race, what if it said a white guy did it?? would you say 'what do you expect from those fucking crackers?" and for black people "all those n*****s are all alike" no!! because assholes come in all forms…black, white, hispanic, asian….the fact of the matter is there are good people out there of all races, and there are alot of evil people too…this world is getting more evil everyday…so Dispicable, STOP and any other racist bastards out there GO FUCK YOURSELVES AND DIE ALONG WITH THIS GUY….the world would be a hell of alot better!!!!
xoxo
Typical homeboy if you asked me.
A man is taken into custody accused of beating a homeless man to death with a crutch.
this was on the news this morning! I hope it's him!
SO VERY SAD. MY CONDOLENCES.
That is beyond sad. Horrific.
GET USED TO IT AMERICA BECAUSE THE 5PICS ARE INVADING AND THE LIBERALS ARE ROLLING OUT THE RED CARPET.
um…i live right there…how scared am i now
this world is such a fucked up place……i hope that man rests in peace.
GET USED TO IT AMERICA BECAUSE THE 5PICS ARE INVADING, AND THE LIBERALS ARE ROLLING OUT THE RED CARPET WITH YOUR TAX DOLLARS. KICK THE SAVAGES OUT NOW!
GET USED TO IT AMERICA BECAUSE THE 5PICS ARE INVADING AND THE LIBERALS ARE ROLLING OUT THE RED CARPET FOR THESE DISEASED, VIOLENT, DRUG DEALING SAVAGES.
It was in the paper this a.m. they caught the guy yesturday at 3 p.m. His name is Ross Ivy, 27. Doesnt sound like a hispanic name.
he was prolly beaten to death by a illegal immagrant.
There are more illegals then bums here in SD. theres an illegal everywhere u turn. Sad.
the crutch wasn't broken, was it???
Good lord, who wrote this piece??? This can't be an official piece in a newspaper…it has loads of spelling mistakes!!!
It's sad that this has happened..but life's a bitch…worse things happen..and nobody is talking about those events!! And PLEASE…take a grammar and spelling lesson!!!!
ISN'T IT BAD ENOUGH THAT WE HAVE TO PUT UP WITH BLACKS?
First, I thought this would be about a celebrity, so I am very disturbed! Second, I find it offensive that someone in their comments refers to Spanish people as Spics. I am not Spanish, but think it is rude, racist, and just plain right disrespectful.
Re: Denise – OH DEAR GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HOPE YOU'RE IN HELL ALREADY!
Too bad it wasn't Heather Mills.
Re: me – "LOL. THATS SAD"
HOW THE FUCK CAN YOU 'SAY' LOL AND THEN THAT'S SAD??? WTF??
YOU ARE A STUPID IDIOT.
ONE WORD. L O B O T O M Y.
This world is truly fucked up..I really have no words…. Poor guy. The homeless have enough problems, there's no need to incite violence against them…this is really really fucked…
This is so sad. *sighs*
Poor guy… May he RIP.
:(
Hope they catch that twisted asshole and give him life in jail.
People act first and think later. You'd think he'd give him twenty bucks for a meal and a bed for a night instead. Sigh. Now he'll do hard time if they catch up with him, and the taxpayers will foot the freakin' tab.
I'm not Latino, but you must realize that Mexicans are predominantly (76%)believing Catholics, and so as a population are a lot LESS inclined to commit these types of crime statistically. If they are immigrants, they do no want to do anything that would have them deported. As any group, though, Latinos have their typical share of the criminal element. This perp could be 4th generation U.S., or could even be from Europe. It would be more accurate to blame impulse, anger and testosterone or mental health issues than finger point at race. If you want to race blame, then you have an agenda.
I love you Perez, but WHAT'S THE POINT ON REPORTING THIS?
A homeless guy sleeping on the street where I live was just beaten to death during the night. If you put yourself out where these individuals frequent, you take your chances. People on the street are about survival.
So sad. That latino dude is a piece of shit for doing that. He was in his 30's for crying out loud. He was grown but he wasn't a man apparently. Real men restrain themselves. I mean what did he have to prove to a homeless amputee. Just walk away dude. What, your life sucks worse than the homeless amputee, so bad you gotta take it out on someone? Fucking douchebag. I hope they catch him. And he gets beat the fuck up in jail.
what the actual fuck
shows what scum actually roams our earth
That is so sad !! Makes you feel sick hearing things happening like this. What is wrong with people in this world ?? Just so so sad, I hope they catch the a**hole who did this, and give him what he deserves for this.
this is bad, but nothing that different. it happens everywhere and homeless people are all crack addicts. or 90% of them at least
Re: kelaudk –
LOL! Too bad indeed!
I would never condone anything like this, but we need to hear the other side of the story first. I have been downtown in my city MANY times when I am approached by very intimidating homeless people who won't take no for an answer. Don't fool yourself, either. Just because he was missing a leg doesn't mean he was less threatening…
Fucking scumbag. A lot of these homeless amputees are WAR VETS.
This world sucks sometimes…
