A 52-year-old men was rushed to Harborview in critical condition early this morning after he nearly died attempting to rob a man half his age on Capitol Hill.

According to Seattle Police Department spokesman Jeff Kappel, a 26-year-old man was walking in to his apartment building in the 1600 block of Melrose Avenue at about 2:30 this morning when the 52-year-old came up behind him, grabbed his groin and his wallet, and attacked him. The 26-year-old man fought back and two bystanders had to jump in and separate the two men. Moments later, the 52-year-old robber collapsed.

The bystanders flagged down a patrol car and officers used a defibrillator to resuscitate the 52-year-old robbery suspect, who was then taken to Harborview in critical condition. He is currently under guard at the hospital and will be booked into the King County Jail for robbery as soon as he is released.

He might want to think about a new line of work when he gets out. He's clearly getting too old for this shit.
