Talking Man Shoots AT&T Trucks - Because They Were Parked In Front Of His House

Miami, Florida
A man, Jorge Jove, 64, from Hialeah, told the AT&T workers he didn't want the trucks parked in front of his home. The workers then told Jove that they would move as soon as possible when they were finished working on the telephone poles
The video shows Jove firing bullets into both utility trucks as a worker calls 911
Police say Jove was a firefighter with Miami-Dade Fire Rescue for 34 years. He has been charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a firearm and two counts of felony vandalism said Hialeah Sgt. Carl Zogby.

Only in Florida.

The first truck does look like it blocks his driveway, but the second truck is down the street.

I wonder if he has AT&T phones or Cable TV and Internet. His service might have interruptions.

...so, he shoots out the tires and radiators because he wants them to move the trucks? Huh, maybe think that through a bit.

Well I think he has a short fuse. My fuse is a bit longer. If a vehicle has not moved outside our house or our neighbors' we have a 72 hour rule as per City bylaws. Phone it in and they get a warning. If it is not moved then it gets towed. Easy squeezy.
No bullets. No bs.

At my old house one of the neighbors was always parking in front of my house almost blocking the driveway. My guests had to park down the street in front of some other house. I asked him several times to not park there so my friends could park there. He said the street was open to anyone, and he is of course right.

It was really strange, but that car parked in front of my house kept getting cut valve stems. It was a real mystery how it happened. Never more than one valve stem but he got a lot of practice changing a flat. Eventually he decided to park in his own driveway to keep a better eye on the car. That really fixed the problem.
