We just had a little excitement in our apartment complex. I was sitting here in the den, in the back of my apartment, when I hear this huge *THUD* and then a guy yelling at the top of his lungs "Hey! Stop! Come back!" Then tires squealing, engines gunning...and then silence.
Come to find out, some young girl (I say young, they said she was maybe 18-20) in a Plymouth Spirit or similar car, came flying through our parking lot (it's basically a straight drag strip, no speed bumps), somehow ended up not going straight, and hit a parked MINIVAN hard enough to knock the back end completely into the empty space next to it. Then she decides she doesn't want to stick around for the consequences, despite there being at least one witness, and takes off. So the guy who lives in the apartment below me, who witnessed it, grabs his keys, hops in his truck, and takes off after her. Several people called the cops, and they came, but so far they haven't tracked the girl down yet. She had too much of a head start for my neighbor to catch her. Hopefully she shouldn't be too hard to find, I can't imagine what her front bumper must look like.
Can you imagine how fast she must have been going? And what if she had hit a kid, of which there are many in this complex? Or hit anyone, for that matter?
The guy who normally parks in the empty space that the minivan got knocked into thankfully was not parked there...he JUST bought a new 05 Mustang GT. It woulda been toast.
I hope they catch that girl. Unbelievable.
