A Florida Man Repeatedly Shot Two AT&T Trucks That Parked Outside His House

Never mind the fact that a stray bullet or ricochet could have gone anywhere: this man's decision to start shooting telecoms company trucks full of holes beggars belief

What’s the correct social protocol when a working vehicle parks in front of your driveway? Hands up who voted for ‘shoot the tyres out and get yourself arrested’?

That’s exactly what one extremely angry Florida man decided was the bst course of acion after a pair of AT&T trucks pulled up to carry out works, partially blocking his driveway. No, really. He actually got his revolver and started putting holes in the trucks.

A Florida Man Repeatedly Shot Two AT&T Trucks That Parked Outside His House

I get the frustration. I do. My own driveway, on a narrow one-way street, gets blocked by unloading vans all the time. It’s annoying but either you ignore it, because the van won’t be there for too long anyway, or you politely ask the driver to move because you need to get your car off your drive. It’s not difficult – or maybe that’s just the British way.

This video shows what happens when you do the other thing. The man, who apparently told police he ‘just went bananas’ after the AT&T trucks set up outside his house, is reportedly a former fireman who served the Miami-Dade department for 34 years. He was arrested on site but released from jail later that day after being charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a firearm as well as one count of felony vandalism.

Juan Montoya fired at a truck, but he didn’t get taken to jail:

Am I the only person who read it as “two AT-ATs” instead of “two AT&T trucks”?

Ah good old Florida, where shooting the tires of a truck will make it move and makes sense!

Surely shooting out tyres and engines will mean the trucks are there longer because they cant move. Either this guy is having problems at home or he needs serious therapy. Possibly both.
