Calling the cops would be the best thing to do, however; street justice would be much more satisfying.

You should do both. Call the cops, let them do there thing.

It would be a real shame if this guy tripped on a few curbs in a dark alley one night. Just make sure you are somewhere and have proof.

Time for someone to take a dirt nap. You don't mess with a mans vehicle like that. I would hold him down and make him drink that reducer....
