A New Jersey man faces decades in prison after driving his SUV into the home of a woman as revenge for hypnotizing him before crashing into a local police station to the tune of Guns N' Roses' 'Welcome to the Jungle.'

John Hargreaves, 34, drove into the Independence Township police headquarters on September 20, causing significant damage while blasting the band's 1987 smash hit.

As he got out of the vehicle, prosecutors said Hargreaves put his hands in the air and appeared to be celebrating while loudly playing the Guns N' Roses song on his car stereo as officers took him into custody.

That crash happened just minutes after Hargreaves had driven into the garage door of a home in Liberty Township, an act prosecutors said was intended to harass the homeowner, who is known to Hargreaves.

as officers took him into custody

Really? Police are so touchy lately. The guy thought it was part of the new drive thru trend that took off during lockdowns.

Which, by the way, Los Angeles, California should use now that the new “no cash bail” system means quick morning arrest and out on the streets again by Noon. Desk Sgt. can politely stoop to the driver and apologize for the arrest earlier in the day.

What is so important about that song that it has to be mentioned in the headline and at least three paragraphs?

He didn’t drive playing Air Supply at least.
For the record, I think he should be shown leniency, since he turned himself in to the police.
