This is a question Tramps

Tramps, burn-outs and the homeless insane all go to making life that little bit more interesting.
Gather around the burning oil-drum and tell us your hobo-tales.

Freak one out
25 years ago I had a leather coat that I got in a surplus store in New York that came from the New York City Transit Police Dept. Real thing...still had the NYCTP patch on the sleeves. Was outside the bar where I worked chatting with the doorman/bouncer when a tramp wanders up, sees my coat, sez "Are you a cop?" "I was, but got kicked off the force." "Why?" "I shot a tramp on the subway platform at 135th Street." Tramp proceeded to make himself rather scarce...

Just one more thing sir...
New York, while not my home town, shares one thing in common with it. We refer to vagrants as bums sir. A tramp would be a lady of suspect promiscuity.

Not that it detracts from the truthfulness of your story at all sir. I hope you don't mind me pointing this out!
