California Highway Patrol officials say they have arrested the man they believe has been throwing boulders – some the size of footballs – at cars on Interstate 5 in Sacramento over two months, injuring several drivers whose windshields were smashed.

The man was identified as Pedro Ruiz Espinoza, 47, a parolee who has two prior arrests for similar rock-throwing assaults in Sacramento


In the tradition of multiculturalism I think the punishment practiced by the Taliban of burying someone up to their neck and stoning them would be appropriate.

I’m glad they got him but those are not “boulders” they’re just typical Sacramento river rocks. Lots of people use them as landscape accents in that area.

He was throwing rocks.

Boulders are bigger than that I think.

Not excusing what he did. He should go to jail but my definition of a boulder is a rock you can’t pick up and throw if you are a normal human.

Watch, the libtards will give him “time served” or make up some other excuse to let this filth out. Then the next death will be on their hands. As for me, I’m with Artichokegrower. Make an example of this dangerous alien. He has proven that he hasn’t learned anything from previous arrests and will only do this again, perhaps with fatal results.

If one of those hit you after coming through your windshield it would kill you as dead as a boulder.

This is attempted murder. He should be given life with no possibility of parole whatsoever.

It’s amazing he hasn’t killed someone already.

This guy likes rocks, have him make big ones into little ones for about 20 years.

I’m sure he’d appreciate the work. BTW, were those rocks being used determined to be assault rocks?

I would just catapult him. If he lives he can go free. But no ride from me to the hospital.

If he is an illegal alien they must release him immediately.
Illegal aliens have full immunity in CA.

Or we can let people throw football-sized rocks at him.

Say, 20 at a time.

About 30 years ago one of my students got nailed for this same type of activity.

He was throwing concrete blocks off an overpass on the interstate trying to hit cars going under the bridge.

He succeeded.

He dropped one right through an Illinois Secretary of State van windshield.

I've no idea who was in the van, but my student very quickly became a "resident" of one of Illinois' crowbar hotels.

As far as I know, that's where he is to this day.

On parole for rock-throwing? What the Hell is wrong with CA?

Pedro was just playing center. It was Kaepernick styling sharp in case one of the playoff teams needs a quarterback.
