1:25 p.m. — A man called 911 and reported that he had been hit by a dump truck near the Elmo dump. While the man’s vehicle was passing the truck, the truck allegedly swerved into him. The reporting party said he then blocked in the dump truck which prompted the truck’s driver to get out of his vehicle and a verbal and physical fight between the two men ensued.
Once authorities arrived on scene both men reportedly wanted to file “assault” charges against “eachother.” Wow! Road rage much?

Anyone who argues that Facebook and MySpace are not a stalker’s dream should look no further.
