Another story from the "slow learner" class:

A man in a wheelchair who makes obscene gestures to the crews of passing trains was injured when he got a little too close to one of them, police said.

Laird told officers he has used a wheelchair since 1989 when a car he was driving was struck by a train near Fremont.
