The video (click through the link) shows a driver of a maroon sedan going full maniac on a white van last Thursday morning at the intersection of Levick Street and Roosevelt Boulevard.
"The offender jumps out of the car with a baseball bat, runs up to the complainant's vehicle, smashes the driver side window out and knocks the mirror off," said Philadelphia Police Lt. Dennis Rosenbaum.
The van ran into the back of the car

Looked to me like he didn't start swinging right away and they said he smashed the driver's window among other things. I wonder if the van driver said something, or buttoned up because of the bat, maybe was on the phone ignoring him, that set him off.
ReplyDeletePhilly tradition, if he had a glove and ball in the car he's ok, if not they'll hang him.
lol, I too have passed on the good advice that if you carry a bat, your lawyer will appreciate it if you bring along a glove and ball. Takes you from premeditated to weapon of convenience
