Borders Bookstore refuses disabled to recharge wheelchair...?

Q: Has anyone heard this story? I live in San Diego and I heard that a San Diego Borders unplugged a wheelchair and refused a disabled person to charge their chair during the fires and esentially put them out of the store. Then the person chair didn't have enough charge to get them home....I wanted to get more info ....does anyone know about this. I've looked and asked around and can't find anything. 3 minutes ago - 3 days left to answer. Report It

A: I saw this posted elsewhere where I answered it so I'll post my answer here too! Oh I read about this on one of my Polio groups. This really happened to one of our members. It was just recently...If I remember correctly she went there to buy a magazine and her scooter was out of juice and the store was really busy so she plugged in but they unplugged her and told her she couldn't do that and I guess the clerk even was rude to her. She can walk to a limited degree,,,she got enough juice in it to get out of the store and half way across the street and then sort of pushed it a couple blocks until some young men in a truck helped her. It was a trumatic experience if I remember right. The story was on a PPS yahoo group
