Have a heart!

So here’s something you don’t see too often in a police report. Someone stole a bunch of pacemakers from a car in Newfane. That’s right, pacemakers. The car’s owner told sheriff’s deputies they were among about $40,000 worth of medical supplies which were swiped.

Let’s face it, some medical supplies are hot items on the street. There are plenty of buyers for things like hypodermic needles, or any drug imaginable. But pacemakers?

Can’t you just see your neighborhood dealer selling them on the black market? “Yo, dude….get your grandma a ticker picker-upper”.
