Today on White Trash Wednesday it isn't dueling banjos, but dueling sleds:
GODFREY -- The parking lot of C & W Auto Glass was the scene of a violent automotive encounter Monday, when two Godfrey men repeatedly rammed vehicles in a quarrel that broke out over the affections of a woman.And what WTW automotive story would be complete without a Camaro?
"They were basically almost having a demolition derby in the parking lot," said Sgt. Brad Wells of the Madison County’s Sheriff’s Department.
The vehicular tangle broke out between Charles A. Bonney, 63, of the 6400 block of Godfrey Road, and Victor L. Harris, 36, of the 1800 block of West Delmar Avenue, at 12:26 p.m. Monday in the business’ parking lot in the 6300 block of Godfrey Road. [emphasis added]
Witnesses saw Bonney ram his black Chevrolet Camaro into Harris’ white Acura Integra three times, and they saw Harris ram Bonney back two times, Wells said.Note that the Camaro was owned by the 63-year-old combatant. That's gotta be the latest mid-life crisis I've ever heard of.
Read the accompanying comments; they're pretty funny too. And don't forget to do the full WTW roundup on my White Trash Wednesdayers blogroll.
