After learning that an elderly woman and her blind husband had been scammed by an unlicensed contractor, Maryland police intervened, restoring not only the couple’s broken roof but also their faith in humanity.
Howard County police officers received a fraud report after a roofing contractor without a license charged $33,000 for an unfinished job. Laying nothing but tar paper, he left his elderly victims high and dry without shingles on their roof, the police department said in a statement.
