Man Shoots Out Tires Of Friend's Car To Prevent Drunken Driving
(BLOOMINGTON, Ind., November 9th, 2004, 11 a.m.) -- A man shot out two tires on a friend's car to keep him from driving drunk, police said.
The driver responded by getting out of his car, pulling a knife and attacking his friend, according to a report by Bloomington police.
Police arrested the driver, David Woodward, 39, of Indianapolis, on a preliminary charge of battery after the fight early Sunday. He was released Monday from Monroe County Jail on $550 bond.
Woodward could not be reached for comment because there was no phone number under his name in Indianapolis listings.
Authorities said they expected to file charges within a few days against the other man, whose identity was not released, after officers found two handguns and an assault-style rifle in his home.
Woodward, who had been staying with friends in Bloomington, went out drinking with them Saturday night and then told them he wanted to drive home to Indianapolis, police said. One of the friends tried to take Woodward's car keys but grabbed the wrong ones, according to police.
Woodward got in his car and started backing out of the driveway, but his friend's car was blocking his way. The friend then retrieved a 9 mm handgun and shot out both left-side tires on Woodward's car, police said.

Hmm I think they should be complimenting him, not bringing charges for illegal possession of a firearm.

I agree. He shouldn't be charged. That guy stopped his friend from driving drunk. He settled it pretty well, I think. He coulda just shot him :P

"Assault-style" = it looks like something that the nasty, violent, politically incorrect Rambo would use, therefore it is bad.
