CHULA VISTA, CA A 41-year-old man was jailed Tuesday on suspicion of chasing two teenage bicyclists onto a Chula Vista golf course, striking one of the boys with his car and then punching the teen several times after the two boys apparently threw food at his car.
It happened around 5:45 p.m. Monday at the East Lake Country Club, south of Otay Lakes Road and east of Eastlake Parkway, according to Chula Vista police.
The two boys, 14 and 15 years old, threw food at the suspect's Mercedes-Benz sedan on Fenton Street near Lane Avenue, then the driver chased after the teens, who rode away on bicycles, Lt. Gino Grippo said.
The teens fled south on Lane Avenue before eventually riding onto grass at the golf course, but the driver followed them, struck the 14-year-old boy with his car and punched the victim several times, Grippo said.
I did read the story.
Including where it says the 14 year old was punched several times by the 41 year old driver.
And I also read where that the boy was treated at the scene and had no serious injuries. Does that make sense to you?
If there was camera footage and everything played out like it reads, then yes, the driver was very much in the wrong. But my wisdom tells me the truth lies somewhere in between what the boys and the driver said.
Throw something at my car and find out.
Face it: they’re older and they have more insurance.
