The brave pensioner was left furious after intruder Nicholas Norton raided his bungalow and immediately got in his car in a determined bid to track down him down.
He spotted the thief heading into the supermarket and followed him in, before grabbing him by the "scruff of his neck" and punching him until he emptied his pockets. Hull Crown Court heard that the OAP wanted to make sure no other elderly people were targeted by the defendant and, despite his frailness, was intent on getting his wallet back.
Norton, 49, of no fixed address but who had previously been staying in a Hull hostel, admitted to the burglary and fraud after using one of the elderly man's bank cards on September 3. Rachel Scott, prosecuting, told the court that the victim had been in his Hull bungalow with the back door open due to the warm weather at roughly 3pm, Hull Live reports.
Norton walked into his back garden limping and said that he had fallen off his bicycle. "He asked for a damp cloth because his leg was bleeding," said Miss Scott.

Jem Aswad Senior Music Editor Twenty years before “Moonage Daydream” was a sprawling documentary film about David Bowie‘s life and art, it was a massive photo book focusing on his Ziggy Stardust years, with photos by Mick Rock — his exclusive photographer at the time — and an introduction and commentary written by both of them. The limited-edition book was snapped up quickly and for years has fetched horrifying prices on the secondary market. But original publisher Genesis Books — which specializes in such state-of-the-art photography books — is releasing a 20th anniversary edition of the book today (Oct. 4, 2022).

Alongside over 600 photographs taken by Rock, Bowie’s provides commentary on the creation and proliferation of the character that, in no understatement, changed rock music.
