A Florida man is accused of carjacking his 77-year-old grandmother – and then penning a four-page letter apologizing for the incident.
Alan Aspinwall was arrested and charged with unarmed carjacking, domestic battery on a person 65 years of age or older, and theft from a person 65 years of age or older.
According to an affidavit, obtained by FOX 35, Aspinwall allegedly carjacked his grandmother on Feb. 6
The Lake County Sheriff’s Office said that at 10:15 p.m. authorities responded to a home in Leesburg, Florida after reports of battery and theft.
The sheriff’s office said that Aspinwall was already wanted for an exposure charge. He now added a carjacking charge and theft and battery on a person over 65.
His grandma said she thinks his addiction problems led to this situation.
