Exclamation Crazy Homeless Dude Hits Eugene's car with a Rock!

So I was sitting on the corner of Old Spanish Trail and Calhoun Road, just behind my school and this crazy homeless guy decides to walk stand in the middle of the crosswalk, wait for the light to turn green, just so he can prove himself to be a psycho and hurl a rock straight at my windshield. I was like, "holy ****!" I jumped out of the car, pull out a tire iron, getting ready to kill this ****, but the police were fortunately on the other side of OST and happened to see this all happen. They arrested the guy and he gave me the most fucked up stare in the world. He was mumbling some **** to me from afar. It was pretty crazy. The dude already threw a rock at some guy's Ford Explorer and damaged the door, and he also took out a van's left side-view mirror. I was pretty freakin' pissed at what was going on, but I felt sorry for the guy because he was homeless, not to mention crazy enough to hurl a rock at my car. And all I wanted to do was get to I.W. Marks so I can pick up a name bracelet for Shelley.

Some of those guys do that crap right in front of the cops so they can get off the streets for a few days...

They wind up at HMHRA usually and get fed and cleaned up for a few days.

Crack? No. It's more like shatter. There's even small shards of glass sitting in my passenger-side seat. It was a really freaky experience, but in the meantime I get to drive a Toyota Prius, which is by far the coolest non-sports car I've ever driven. :D

Keith is probably right. This guy probably wanted some food or something, so he pulled what he pulled. I still feel sorry for the guy, even though he smashed my windshield in. Oh I wish for a digital camera, or at least a camera phone to show you guys how bad this really was. It looks like a freakin' baseball hit my car.

About the name bracelet, you guys will just have to wait. A full write-up in the coming weeks. :p

UPDATE:

Well, I was called by the D.A.'s office yesterday, and they were wondering whether I should put him away or put him on probation. Honestly, this guy seriously needs a helping hand, and I don't think jail is the best solution. I'd rather have him pay restitution and get him some counseling, which is what I had suggested. I believe jail is for murderers, rapists, you know real criminals. I believe this guy was just looking for a hot meal and a place to stay. I really feel bad that we can't help all homeless people. All I want is restitution for my car and for this guy to get some help.
