A Tiburon man was arrested Monday on allegations he tried to run over a pedestrian because he didn't like his jacket, police said.
Eugene Thomas Anderson, 31, was booked on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon. His bail was set at $50,000.
The incident occurred around 5:30 p.m. in downtown Tiburon, where police received numerous calls on a reckless driver on Tiburon Boulevard, said police Sgt. Steve Hahn. One caller reported a driver doing spinouts in the parking lot at the CVS pharmacy, and another reported a man who got out of a car in Belvedere and started throwing garbage cans in the street, Hahn said. Around the same time, Tiburon fire Capt. Steve Ardigo saw a car come up on the sidewalk and nearly hit a pedestrian in front of the fire station.
"He sped off and we called the police," Ardigo said. As police searched the area, a sheriff's deputy stopped a potential suspect in a Honda on westbound Tiburon Boulevard.

"He said he didn't like the jacket the guy was wearing," Hahn said. "He found it offensive."

I like plaid, as long as there is not too much of it!

What year did he win the Masters?
P.S. My father was the same way. My mother would cringe at the things he would wear.
And ban the importing of large capacity gas tanks (or long extension cords for Volts and Leafs)

And me, too. Stop me before I attack again! I need funds for treatment which is only available in Scotland.
Wearing a plaid jacket in front of a Honda is like waving a red cape in front of a bull.
