Police Brutality? Well, Not Quite
See, now this is exactly what I meant by Canadian seniors need to move to Florida due to harsh Canadian winters.
It seems an 85 year old Canadian man was accidentally locked up in a police compound after his vehicle was towed there. The police ticketed and had a car towed away for illegal parking, but no one noticed the man sitting in the driver's seat because the windows were frosted over.
The man sat in the car for hours at the compound before it was noticed he was in there. Once found, the man appeared disoriented, but conscious.
Now that's a true Canadian winter, lol.
Let's just say the police are very lucky they didn't have a senior-sicle on their hands like they occasionally do this time of year. No joke.
Trust me, Florida's a good place to move when you hit retirement age around here.

Couldn't he have honked his horn or done something to get the tow truck drivers attention?
It's kinda scary who we share the roads with ;)

Oh no you don't! Don't send them down here. We've got enough of them as it is!

LOL @ Seniorsicle- Makes you wonder though why someone would just sit in a vehicle while it was being towed away without getting someone's attention. He must of been disoriented way before his 5 hour stay in the compound.
