We have never heard of a richshaw before, and we don’t think you have to be rich to ride a rickshaw, so we’re not sure how this typo escaped the editor’s attention.

Spotted on the Charleston City Paper’s web site on March 25, 2011. 

We’re giving this typo two categories (newspaper typo AND web site typo), because the web site belongs to a newspaper.

We don’t know whether the print version of this story also had the typo, but if you live in Charleston and have seen a copy of the printed newspaper with this headline, would  you let us know?
