A Rude Surprise

Recently, I came across this story (click here) in the crime reports:

May 9th- 1600 Block of University Dr., resident comes home to find a BBQ grill was thrown through his front window, and his motorcycle kicked over.

Okay, the motorcycle thing, aside, who throws a grill through a window?

I'm going to take a more satirical view, here, so please read this with that in mind...

My first thought, "Whoa! That's rough!" My second, "Were there no rocks or bricks?"

**I met the resident, at his home, and he explained he believes this stems from a series of harassment moves by a school mate of his daughters. I'm not a detective...so I will this right there, with that being his claim. Still, I felt I should mention that.**

But imagine his surprise to find a charcoal grill in his front window, I'm sure there is a grilling joke in there somewhere, but I won't go there.

While filming his home, I realized the dirty blinds hanging where the glass once was, had a nice little stain. Then it hit me, this wasn't a stain but ash where the grill smashed through.

Okay, I'll go there..throwing a grill through a window, would that make it a "Hot Shot?" (Don't laugh, it'll only encourage me.)

Still for this resident, he was left with a busted window, glass and ash inside his home, and a fear of what could come next. Good thing the mailbox was anchored into the ground...
