Dr David 'powerfully built' "raging skinhead hulk" Banner ripped off his shirt and then started to rip parts off your car?

"The chase ended when the driver of the £45,000 Jaguar had to stop at traffic lights outside Bathgate Academy. The frightened driver attempted to lose his pursuer on at least one roundabout before trying to drive to the town's police station"

http://news.scotsman.com/edinburgh/Topless-fury-of...

"His well-built assailant jumped from his silver Astra and bizarrely ripped off his T-shirt, before tearing the wing mirror from the Jaguar, bending the windscreen wipers and kicking the driver's door, causing thousands of pounds worth of damage."

Well, we know it wasn't 911M as the description of the suspect is different.

If I'd been chased for 20 minutes by the guy, and then he got out of his car, I'd be through the red lights before he was even alongside mine. Good opportunity to lose him, as well.

Haha reminds me of a story I read about an old boy waking up to find that thieves were in his shed.

He calls the police and they say they don't have anyone available at the moment.

He calls back 5mins later and says no need for the police now as I've shot them, and hangs up.

5mins later there are armed police everywhere. They arrest the thieves and say to the old boy, I thought you said you shot them?

The old boy replie, I thought you said you were busy?

Yes I would jump a red light if it was safe enough to do so.

I'd rather not have bits smashed off my car.

A boy is a young male human (usually child or adolescent), as contrasted to its female counterpart, girl, or an adult male, a man.

He'd have been driving something impressive like his classic Aston Martin or his GT2, not an Astra. nuts

no one else think there is a little more to this story then the meathead got pissed because he was over taken on a DUAL cabbageway, surely the Jag was not the only car to over take him there at that time.

Regardless of what the Jag did or did not do, Meathead had no right to terrorise him in that way.

I mentioned this joke to a friend whos former armed response, and he said the more likely situation would be:

"Firearms Unit 1 en route, ETA 40 mins"
"Firearms Unit 2 en route, ETA 45 mins"
"Gold command to all units, stay clear of area until firearms unit arrives".
