You’re lucky he didn’t steel it but you’re even luckier you didn’t hit him.
Unfortunately the law is on his side if you injure him. Stupid law, he can sue you AND HE WILL once he talks to the lawyer. Now if he were hurting you and you have proof of your injuries (doctor report), you can claim you were defending yourself. In this case it was property damage and not personal injury. Though they both fall under the name CIVIL INJURY, they are handled in two separate manners.
For your safety both personally and legally, you should never pursue a criminal. Though I don’t have trust in the police, you should leave it up to them to right the wrongs of a criminal.
hahaha so true. We haven’t even been drinking in a long time. Damn it I think I burn out after 1 cause I haven’t had anything serious since Angies house.
