Man Seeks Sex Through Craigslist, Finds Carjackers Instead

As we all know, Craigslist can be a source of classic cars, parts and memorabilia. Completely unbeknownst to anyone at Jalopnik, it can also be used to solicit sex. A 23-year-old Brentwood man responded to an ad offering sex at what we assume was an attractive rate. But instead of "hittin that," a pair of men hit him in the head with a shotgun they were carrying. The man escaped with his life, but the criminals escaped with his money and GMC Sierra truck.

Honda Civic: Car Of Choice For Johns

Yeah, that there Honda Civic just makes a man feel a need to get him some action, like a randy bull a-snortin' and a-pawin' the ground.

Streetwalkin' Cheetahs With Hearts Full of Po-Po Bust Would-Be SoCal Johns, Cars Confiscated

Van Nuys residents along Sepulveda Boulevard had been complaining about prostitutes along the fabled really-freaking-long Southern California street. Mindful of that, law enforcement officials set up a sting, tarting up female officers and busting full-to-burstin' men who pulled up offering renumeration in exchange for some sexual attention. The men were cited and their cars confiscated; no doubt a number of wives and girlfriends were brandishing the rolling pin that night. More »

Indian Truckers Spreading HIV Across Subcontinent

As history has taught us, mobility is often a double-edged sword. In India, quite a few indigenous truck stops, or "dhabas," offer free food to long-haul truckers, provided they pop for a quick stress-reliever with a prostitute, kinda like free drinks while one gambles in Vegas. Unfortunately, many, if not most of the drivers are uneducated about the dangers of HIV, and many of the (often very young) prostitutes at dhabas don't have the leverage to insist on condom use, if they've even been educated about its benefits at all.
