A College Park man has been accused of attacking a motorist with a live power line knocked down by the Hurricane Irene. According to authorities, on Sunday, August 28, 32-year-old Richard Bialczak tailed a man with his car and then got out and attacked him. Derek Edwards, 28, was driving home from work when Bialczak's car came up closely behind him. Edwards said he tried to get away from Bialczak, but the suspect matched him turn for turn, until they reached Colesville Road in Silver Spring. There, the victim encountered a downed power line, still charged with electricity, which had been blown into the road by the poweful storm. Police said Edwards got out of his vehicle to warn Bialczak in the car behind him of the danger. When he did, authorities allege the College Park man got out of his car and threatened the victim, who quickly retreated back into his car. Bialczak was heavily intoxicated, according to investigators. Police said Bialczak then got back into his car and started ramming the victim's vehicle repeatedly, seemingly in an attempt to push the victim's car closer to the downed power line. Police said the suspect then got out and started hammering Edwards' car with both his feet and his fists. In the assault, police said Bialczak tore off the car's antenna, and then wrestled off the victim's bumper. While his car was getting pummeled, the Edwards placed a cell phone call to 911. Authorities said in a final act of aggression, the suspect grabbed hold of the still-sparking power line that Edwards had tried to warn him about and threw it at the victim's car. Edwards was not hurt. Police said when they arrived on the scene, Bialczak's behavior had become docile and compliant. He was taken into custody without incident. In Montgomery County District Court, Bialczak was served with a raft of charges, including assault, reckless endangerment, and malicious destruction of property. He is due back in court on September 23.

Shocking...just shocking
It also says that Bialczak is an "D.C. attorney".
Is it possible that he might be a Union Thug Attorney? Without a photo or more personal data it's hard to tell, but how many people with that name can there be in that geographic region?

In the ensuing confrontation, Bialczak threatened to kill the man and said that, "his boss told him to follow him."
De nada.
Note to self: When sent out on a union-thug mission, skip the multiple glasses of whiskey before attempting the assignment.
“My son, the ZOT is a great power. And with great power comes great responsibility.”
I thought the whiskey was the best part.
