Early Morning Run...With A Wrench?

So this morning I went on my morning run like I usually do. This time around along the way I spot what appears to be a homeless man helping an old woman change a flat tire on the side of the road. Like the upstanding citizen that I am I go over and try to help the cause. No luck. The bolts on the wheel are on way too tight and even I (with my superhuman strength) could not remove them. I tried.
