True story.

Background: We live in a fine area and about a month ago some punks decided to drive around and shoot out car windows and my sisters BMW was hit.
Replacement driver window cost us $300 and hours of clean-up.

Story went into newspaper and posted reward of $1000 for infomation leading.....................ect.

A long story - I'll shorten it up a bit.

Well on Saturday night I came outside to warm up my NSX and noticed some teens in a 89 civic hatch driving with their headlights off at 9:45pm. They drive around the circle at the end of the street and turn around. As they drive up I hide behind a bush. They approached my house and then proceeded to back up (headlights were still off). I hear them say "there it is... there it is."

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM - they fired PAINT BALLS AT THE HOUSE NEXT DOOR AND HIT THEIR CAR!!!

They take off and I quickly jump in my car to chase those punk a$$ kids!!! HAHAH

Needless to say I call 911 on my cell phone and continously noted my location at every turn and intersection. After about 20 minutes into the pursuit the police finally caught up and pulled them over. A total of 4 or 5 patrol cars arrived. I felt good and those punks got escorted to the Police Station. The officer then tells me that they hit many other cars and homes.

Hope they don't come back for revenge... i should put up a camera in front of my home. What an exciting night!
 
You da man!!!! Cool story....hopefully there will not be a part 2!!!
 
Yeah, dude...put the NSX in the garage** ;)


...great story! :D
 
So did you get the reward???????????

Awesome story! Too bad the punks were driving a Honda and not a Camaro or something.
 
great story.. but i doubt a paint ball gun is going to shatter a car window. if they had that much force they'd be breaking bones (actually i did see one break a bone once, but it was a fluke). sounds like you may have more than one group of culprits.

Actually the velocity on a paintball guy can be turned up. Enough to the point where it will knock a man down, or break some ribs.

The standard 280 fps that paintball fields use would not be enough to break windows but if you turn it up over 400 fps they will. Also you can freeze the paintballs, at which point its like shooting marbles.
 
ah, my paint ball guns aren't variable and i wasn't familiar with the trick of freezing the paint balls (thats evil).

Cold (not frozen) paint balls are extremely hard and hurt like hell!!! I could imagine how much a frozen one would feel :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: .
 
Well done.
Wish more people will do that, instead of turning their head away.

If you turned your paintball gun presure to 400 fps, majority of the paintballs you shoot would most likely explode in the barrel. I have done that before and you break too many paint balls in the barrel. If you froze the ball like suggested it would most definately be a weapon. I never thought of that before. Good thing none of my buddies did.
 
SWEET STORY!!! Well done my friend....glad you took action and caught those punks.

Sorry I forgot to mention my sister's BMW was hit with a BB gun. So it may not be the same kids afterall. I'll find out later.
They are still vandalizing cars in your neighborhood. Maybe they'll think before they try it again - most likely not but maybe!!
 
Great work Mr.Nsxexotic. I'm recruiting at the moment. Want to work with the big boys? :D

Mr.tochigidream, indeed I would. If they come back for retribution, do not call 911. Instead call 555-WOLF for the quickest cojones removal service in the US of A. :D
 
AWESOME STORY!!!! :cool: Now if only we had video footage of the chase... ;)

The police can't deal with all crime - they need society to help. You did good. They would have to be REALLY stupid to come back for revenge. Now the Police have their details, they would instantly be prime suspects.

That was very honourable and courageous of you <B>nsxexotic</B> : our new NSXvigilante!!! :D
 
Video would be awsome
