A man met two women who responded to a Craigslist ad for Jay Z tickets and was run over after the women stole the tickets.

Houston man robbed, run over, disfigured for his Jay-Z tickets - Houston Chronicle

Denitra Sherrelle Green and Cessica Darden stole the tickets from Brad Ginsburg, and the two women had a child in the back seat of the car! Then the ran him over as he was trying to lean into the car and retrieve the stolen tickets.

Of course these two women are idiots and were arrested at the concert using the stolen tickets. Unfortunately these two are your usual ticket thieving sort and will not be able to fund any of the required medical bills the guy needs in order to have his body repaired.

Please do not turn this into a Craigslist hating thread. This about a guy who had his life wrecked by two scumbag thieves.

I agree these women are villains, but the news story makes it sound like he grabbed hold of the vehicle after they snatched the tickets from his hand and began driving away. If he really did grab hold of the moving vehicle, that wasn't the wisest move, and (if true) I bet he regrets it.

He's lucky to be alive. Reaching in to retrieve the tickets could have also gotten him shot.

Lord, this dude is crazy. I would have happily let them drive off, take down their plates, file a report and the police would have caught these psychos at the concert anyway considering their dumbasses still went. smh

He made some mistakes and learned from them the hard way. He could've handled the situation in different ways to avoid the outcome he faced, which is still not good.

He should've met them inside a public area (bank etc) to do the transaction. If they refused, that's the red flag that something bad was going to go down. Giving him the signal to back out of the deal.

Ok it is arguable that he should have done something differently. It does. It change the fact his life is now ruined by two ghetto hoodrats.
