Sorry, been in the states and Central America for a long time; but what happened to the Homeless Gringo?

Been wondering the same thing, have heard he was seen recently by Superlake. Haven't seen him myself in over a month, keeping a low profile? Probably hoping it will all blow over. Heard he is still at the ranch, but staying away from the people volunteering there. Scary guy.

A persistently nasty person who will not go away is more than anybody should have to put up with.
I am finding it difficult to hold charitable thoughts for this ..... scratch. Lizzy

Don't know if he's still living at the property adjacent to the Dog Ranch. Maybe I'll get real brave and tippy-toe down there to see if his stuff's still in the unfinished structure where he was staying. A while back, he did mentioned that he would be moving into a donated camper trailer "on Federal Land somewhere", maybe he's done that and that's why we haven't seen him? No tellin'!

Damn! I wish I had seen the flyer that publicized his existence. The bastard told me I needed "permission" to take his picture. After his verbal assault upon my wife, I should have had "permission" to kick him in the balls!!!

It appears that he is reluctant to frequent his usual haunts.

Stella, if he approaches you for a hand-out and you have a cellphone, just call the local cops. They are well aware of his shenanigans.

If anyone sees him panhandling anywhere lakeside I hope they will post the time, date and place they saw him. Thanks

No, he was alone just merrily walking along the street. Both times I was ina car when I passed him. Ajijic was very busy as it usually is on a Saturdy afternoon with all sorts of vendors and a few beggars but he was just walking,....no dog, no flute, nada.

Never a dull moment as the the saga continues.
At any rate, it's good to know your efforts are having an effect.
Probably will have to persist in going after this guy, but eventually there will be a payoff.
Extra kudos to you R-bob, for your efforts. Lizzy

As per usual, I got wrapped up in Ranch tasks, and before I knew it, it was time for me to hit the road... I didn't do my "recon" work. Let's see later this week, or early next week, if "himself" has cleared out his stuff from the "obra negra". Will update post...

Well, as of today (Sunday) he's still living in the unfinished structure near the Dog Ranch. Somebody heard he's been hanging out in Chapala (someplace back behind the Bull Ring) perhaps has found sympathetic "givers" over there, rather than at Super Lake???

He was seen on two different evenings singing (in Spanish) and playing a guitar for pesos in front of the 7-11 east of San Antonio. I don't have a problem with that. What I do have a problem with is his aggressive panhandling and intimidating folks.

He can sing & play????

Hell, I thought all he could do is that obnoxious whistling!!!

(I might toss a few pesos for a decent rendition of "El Paso"!! Very Happy )

Um, I videoed him for fun and will post later. He not really doing much wrong except being a bit annoying. Owners and others just ignore him.

Now he's begging and asking for money and getting coins.


He's gone now.
