When drivers act like douchebags, nobody says, "Hey, that guy's giving car drivers a bad name." They just say, "Man, what a douchebag."

<DIV>Police said a bystander confronted the car-bashing bicyclist and he allegedly punched the bystander.</DIV>
<DIV>Brian REDACTED, 40, of 106 Sycamore St. in Somerville was arrested at Mass. Ave. and Osborn Street and charged with malicious destruction of property over $250 and assault and battery.</DIV>
<DIV>Police responded to a 911 call at the intersection of Mass. Ave. and Albany Street just after 11 p.m. July 30 and found REDACTED fighting in the middle of Osborn Street with a 32-year-old Quincy man.</DIV>
<DIV>The Quincy man reported he was standing outside the Paradise bar when two of his friends pointed to REDACTED and reported he had just smashed the window of a parked car they were sitting inside. That’s when he allegedly noticed REDACTED kicking several other cars on the street and chased after REDACTED on Albany Street to Osborn Street.</DIV>
<DIV>When the Quincy man asked REDACTED why he smashed the car window, REDACTED allegedly threatened him and told him he was going to “kick his a—,” according to police reports.</DIV>
<DIV>REDACTED, who police said smelled of alcohol and was unsteady on his feet, also allegedly punched the Quincy man in the face and the Quincy man held REDACTED until police arrived, according to reports.</DIV>
<DIV>The Quincy man’s two friends told police they were sitting in the front seat of the car when they noticed REDACTED stop his yellow bicycle next to the car.</DIV>
<DIV>REDACTED allegedly leaned on the motor vehicle and began to bang on the front of the car. When one friend asked REDACTED to stop, REDACTED allegedly began yelling and swearing at the two men and punched the passenger’s window.</DIV>
<DIV>The hit did not break the window, but then REDACTED allegedly picked up his bicycle and smashed it against the window, shattering the glass and denting and scratching the passenger’s side door and back of the car, according to police reports.</DIV>
<DIV>The two men ran to find their friend, report the damage to the car’s owner — a 64-year-old Malden man — and called 911 to report the incident to police.</DIV>
<DIV>REDACTED told police the men attacked him and he wanted to leave. Police said REDACTED refused to answer any questions. Police seized REDACTED’s bike as evidence.</DIV><BR></DIV></DIV>_______________________________________________<BR>Boston Critical Mass mailing list<BR><A><A href="mailto:list@bostoncriticalmass.org" target=_blank>list@bostoncriticalmass.org</A></A><BR><A><A href="http://bostoncriticalmass.org/list" target=_blank>http://bostoncriticalmass.org/list</A></A><BR>To unsubscribe email <A><A href="mailto:list-unsubscribe@bostoncriticalmass.org" target=_blank>list-unsubscribe@bostoncriticalmass.org</A></A><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR><BR>_______________________________________________<BR>Boston Critical Mass mailing list<BR><A><A href="mailto:list@bostoncriticalmass.org" target=_blank>list@bostoncriticalmass.org</A></A><BR><A><A href="http://bostoncriticalmass.org/list" target=_blank>http://bostoncriticalmass.org/list</A></A><BR>To unsubscribe email <A><A href="mailto:list-unsubscribe@bostoncriticalmass.org" target=_blank>list-unsubscribe@bostoncriticalmass.org</A></A><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR><BR>
