Ms Macbeth Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 About 3.30 today at the end of Fargate, I hurried across to the tram stop between other traffic. There weren't many people about, and this guy said something to me. I thought he was asking me a question, or directions so I moved closer to hear what he was saying. 'I have as much right to this space as you' was what he said. He then said, 'do you think cos you're older you have more rights than me? You deliberately walked on that bit of pavement when you could see I was going to.' He kept going on, so I said I didn't want his space, but if he thought I did, I'd apologise anyway. 'Don't get sarcastic' was the next bit! Then he said 'you've really spoilt my day!'. I said 'you haven't done much for mine either' I walked away at that point, and stood with other people at the tram stop. He was chuntering on a bit further down the road, and I think he must have had a go at some more people who were just going about their business. He looked in his early 30's with fairish hair and very uneven front teeth. He also spoke quite softly, but angrily. I was concerned on 2 counts. If he approaches a much older person, who may be a bit frail, it could upset them if they don't know what he's on about. He may have some sort of problem with older people (I'm 60). If you know him, please warn him that if he picks the wrong person to approach he could end up getting shouted or sworn at, or even hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dynamicdebz Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 I was going to say perhaps he has dementia or alziemers but while not impossible I doubt it due to his age. He probably has some sort of phsycological disorder, but your right it could land him in more bother than he realises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gadgetgirl Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 If its the same bloke he's often in the library on Surrey Street or the Winter Gardens, gets a bit excited at times, but mostly harmless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 i've had a strange experience too at about the same time today on the tram. Got on a shalesmoor, then a young lad got on and started asking the tram driver where the nearest HSBC bank was, the tram driver just ignored him so I answered his question. the lad then proceeded to perform a 'slim-shadey' style rap about my clothes, hair etc and called me a 'hoe', whilst holding his genitles! everyone on the tram was looking over and I turned bright red!
