A pair of total wimps who call themselves car thieves have gone and left an old dude for dead down in south-east Queensland. Stanley Parkes somehow managed to survive when these two losers ran a red light and crashed a stolen SUV right into him at an intersection in Logan, which is south of Brisbane. Now, this 79-year-old fella is pleading with the public to help him track down these cowards who did him dirty.
So, there’s a video of these cowardly car thieves running away from the crash, leaving poor Stanley Parkes to fend for himself in Queensland’s south-east. “If I would’ve been just a little further out, I would’ve been a goner, dead as a doornail,” Parkes said. The thieves were caught on camera hightailing it out of the Kingston crash scene like the spineless individuals they are. Witnesses saw the whole thing go down, with Dannelle Lamberth mentioning, “We were just minding our own business on this street when all of a sudden, BAM! This guy was speeding like crazy, at least 80Ks, you know?”
The stolen Haval SUV collided with the Subaru that Parkes was in at around 5 pm the other day. “Man, it was terrifying, I kid you not, it was really bad,” Parkes shared with 9News. The poor guy had just left his home a few blocks away to grab some cereal from the local store when this madness unfolded. “This dude just came out of nowhere and crashed into me, ya know? I was stuck and he took the whole front of my car with him. I was like, ‘Oh man! No car for me now’. My car was in tip-top shape too.” These two clowns in the stolen Haval made a run for it across the road and down the street, and as of now, they’re still out there somewhere. “They just left an old man, a senior man all alone and didn’t even bother to check if he was okay,” witness Kristee Heyden recounted.
Kind-hearted folks are rallying behind the 79-year-old, generously donating their own money to help him get a new set of wheels. “A bit of sunshine in the midst of a really dark and sad story,” Heyden remarked. “I couldn’t have asked for nicer people than that,” Parkes added, grateful for the support he’s been receiving.
