Riga Searches for Knight in Wheelchair - Liepāja's beach Offers More Peaceful Venues for Conflicts
Riga police are searching for a man in a wheelchair who managed to shoot someone at a gas station. After such news, Liepāja's beach seems like a haven of peace.
Riga has once again proven that even gas stations there can become Wild West movie sets. Police are searching for a man in an electric wheelchair who on April 1st organized an impromptu shooting practice on Latgales Street, using an acquaintance as target practice.
Most interesting is that this isn't an April Fool's joke — though the date makes you think otherwise. The attacker turned out to be as mobile with his wheelchair as our Liepāja bus drivers are with keeping to schedule. The victim is now recovering in hospital, pondering how expensive friendship can be in the capital.
"When I saw they were looking for a knight in a wheelchair, I immediately thought — why didn't he go to Liepāja's beach to resolve conflicts?" comments local resident Andris. "There you can peacefully discuss all misunderstandings, and the only thing that might get shot is a selfie with the sunset."
Police urge residents to stay alert and not detain the suspect themselves — because you never know if what's on his lap is just a dog or something more dangerous. While Riga searches for the wheelchair knight, in Liepāja we're simply glad that our biggest dramas only happen in the tram schedule.
