'Stupid' Car Thief 'Butt Whipped' by Florida Senior Citizen: Cops
In a scathing Facebook post, the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office mocked the arrest of brazen burglar Blake Robinson, aka “Mr. Tough Guy” who “got manhandled by a 66-year-old man who thankfully only required brief medical treatment and was left without any serious injuries!!” Facebook

A "stupid" car thief who made the "mistake" of trying to break into a car "that of course was not his" got his "butt whipped" by a Florida senior citizen, authorities teased.

In a scathing Facebook post, the Brevard County Sheriff's Office mocked the arrest of brazen burglar Blake Robinson, aka "Mr. Tough Guy" who "got manhandled by a 66-year-old man."

On Thursday, deputies responded to the victim's Brevard County, Florida, home after Robinson allegedly hit the elderly man in the head as he attempted to thwart the carjacking. The victim fought back and tackled Robinson to the ground where he lay until his arrest.


As a result, the sheriff's office joked Robinson "won a few prizes" including a "chauffeured ride" to the hospital before arriving at jail, where he was given "a freshly washed 2-piece ensemble to get comfortable in, before being shown to his sleeping area in our open floor plan."

"Last but not least, he was awarded a $30,000 bond for burglary of an unoccupied conveyance, and battery on a person over the age of 65!! Wow that sucks...he got an enhanced charge for hitting someone over the age of 65 who ended up whooping his punk butt!!"

"We hope you enjoy your stay... and as we like to say here in Brevard County, 'Mess Around and Find Out!!'" the sheriff's office quipped.
