He filed a police report so his insurance covered replacing the windshield, but still a huge PITA.
some years back some kids decided to drop a concrete block off an overpass close to my town (I believe something similar happened downstate a few years later). The block went through the windshield and killed the passenger of the vehicle (the driver's wife). Most uncool.

We had some kids doing that on the interstate here with boulders, they ended up killing someone too.

what the hell is wrong with kids? Or maybe a better question is what the hell is wrong with parents? I mean I remember doing some dumb stuff when I was a kid but NEVER anything that would hurt anyone else. We never vandalized property or anything because we knew that it would be an ASS BEATING when we got caught. I was headed into town one night and had someone shot my car with a paint ball. It hit the drivers window right where my head was. (good shot at night) If I would have had the window down it would have hit me in the temple. I slammed on the brakes and whipped around, tried to find the bastards but they were in the park hiding in the trees and the park gates were closed. Then I started thinking. "hey if they are in the park that means they walked here from somewhere" I drove down a side road that was right there and sure enough there was their vehicle. I called the police and told them what happened and where the vehicle was. Then I let the air out of ALL their tires and headed into town to get my pizza. When I came back I went down the side road and there they were three young punks sitting on the side of the road with two squad cars there. LOL I drove by laughing and yelled "NICE SHOT DUMB ASS, HOPE IT WAS WORTH IT" The cops called me the next day and asked if I wanted to press charges and I said hell ya. Then two days later one of the kids dads called me to apologize and ask if me and my car were ok. He was a super nice guy and told me that his son had be pretty seriously punished. So since there was no real damage to my car or me I dropped the charges. The police still ticketed them for shooting the car, for trespassing in the park after it was closed and for breaking curfew. so they ended up with about 400 dollars worth of fines per kid.

heh i did a similar number on some kids throwing rocks in iraq. They were so busy chucking them at the middle truck that they missed us leave the end of the convoy and start barreling across the field towards them. Little fuckers almost shit their pants
