Some homeless folks in America have piles of cash - I recall one in San Diego in the early 80's who died, and was discovered to have over $300,000 in cash in his cardboard shack that he lived in at the dump - I believe it was a thrown away refrigerator box made out of cardboard that he called both "home" and "bank vault".
Some of the panhandlers at highway off-ramps in Greensboro, NC were pulling down six figures a year just standing there holding a pitiful sign about how bad their woes were. It got so bad that the city started issuing panhandling licenses to try to curtail it.
But THIS guy had a car, parked in short-term parking at an airport, so he seems to have had some sort of plan, the what of which I cannot even begin to fathom. The average panhandler in the US doesn't go to work bristling with knives and machetes. that sort of sight tends to be off-putting to the donors!
'Industrious' -I believe is the word used! It could be that he's just starting out on his assassin-career and the grounding
of being caught straight away by authorities will benefit the homeless chap.
Maybe he's simply an out-of-work circus-performer and since his female assistant -the gal on the revolving wheel, isn't
allowed out of the makeshift den in the underpass, his throwing equipment are being seen in a wrong light.
This may explain why he's been 'given notice to appear in court' -which indicates he may not be locked-up.
