DETROIT: Retirement communities and skilled nursing homes imply a level of elevated safety in their commercial pitch to prospective customers. But evidence is mounting that age-apartheid compounds are increasingly becoming soft crime targets and the care sector is trashing its reputation by doing nothing to effectively counter the growing threat:

He also admitted breaching the terms of a previous community payback order.
He was placed on a community payback order for nine months, with 60 hours of unpaid work to be completed within that time.
