This is absolutely terrifying.
A Memphis man says he was violently attacked, injected with meth, and robbed at knife and gunpoint by two guys he met on Grindr.
The attack happened last Thursday. The man met his assailants on Grindr. After inviting him and another fellow over to his apartment, things quickly went awry.
WREG3-TV reports:
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
The victim told police the first man emerged from the bathroom with a gun and told the victim, “Get on your knees and beg for your life!” He also reportedly told the victim, “I’m gonna kill you” and “It’s our job to take out f*cks like you!”
He then allegedly told the victim he would instead “slit his throat” because it would be “quieter for the neighbors.”
Sounds horrifying!
But it doesn’t stop there.
The victim told police that his assailants forced him to hand over all his valuables, including two TVs, a laptop, and a watch. Then they forcefully injected him with meth, causing him to fade in and out of consciousness.
After getting him high, the assailants took the man to a nearby department store where they made him buy them almost $4,000 in designer clothing. After finishing the shopping spree, they allegedly dumped the man on the side of the road and took off in his Cadillac ATS.
Oh, but the nightmare continues.
The suspects took the keys to the man’s apartment and allegedly returned several more times over the couple of days to steal more of his belongings. Police believe at least one of them might be connected to another robbery.

Well at least one department store cashier needs to be questioned as to how they couldn’t figure out they were selling $4k in clothes to a drugged-up hostage :-/

he couldn’t just say his card was stolen to get out of paying the bill? this is definitely over thought.

As a recovering meth addict I have two things to say:
1. Puhlease.
2. No one shoots up with a freaking horse tranq needle like that for crying out loud. Your graphic department needs education. LOL

How many of the tales from Grindr will it take before gay men get the message? Grindr is a cesspool and the 15 minutes of sexual bliss is not worth your life!!! There are other options.

For a lot of people, there aren’t other options. You think talking to guys in a bar is an option for a lot of us? lol

What. No sex? How boring.

I thought the same thing. Maybe someone left out the sentence in which they took turns gangbanging and spit-roasting this poor thing, leaving him so sore he could barely walk to the car.

Please, someone in Hollywood, this could make for an interesting movie. Spend a few million on this instead of another boring, overdone, overproduced superhero movie. You can even find cute actors to fill ALL the roles. No James Franco, though, please!

I don’t think this tale is true. The incongruences are so many and so ridicously told that is hard to believe. Besides meth doesn’t that those overpowering effects of controlling the human mind like a buying zombie. Hahaha.

Are we actually supposed to believe this happened? Where’s the department store video? Why did employees not think anything of a guy “on meth” buying $4000 worth of merch with two guys pushing him around? Where were the cops over these next couple of days when they ‘returned’ to the guy’s apartment? None of this adds up. It’s like a bad cable TV drama.
