You Think YOU Had a Tough Week?
ATHENS, Tenn. — After being struck by a car Sunday and beaten by an intruder Monday, Tony Hicks returned to a hospital a third consecutive day when police investigating a convenience store robbery shot him.
The unrelated sequence of hospitalizations was not the first time police have dealt with Hicks, whose criminal record includes a shootout with police, Detective Bill Matthews said.
A police statement said Hicks was shot after making "aggressive movements" toward officers who wanted to question him about the Tuesday night robbery near his apartment.
KARMA... It works! This guy has a bit of a rap sheet....
