Stacey Wallace looks at the shattered passenger window of his Ford Mustang. Friday night, he was driving Wilson Road in Chattanooga when a pickup truck passed him and suddenly a brick came crashing through the passenger window. "There was just this explosion, and I seen a couple of people on the right," Wallace says. "It all happened so fast I just thought it was an explosion." Glass shards are scattered throughout the car and the brick is still sitting in the passenger seat. www.wrcbtv.com/story/16681005/brick-thrown-through-a-car-window-while-driving

Is Wilson Rd a 4 lane highway? Why was the guy passing on the right side? Inquiring minds want to know.

If you read the whole story, it's very weird. I agree with one of the commentors on the WRCB site.. doesn't make sense as presented. The entire story says one brick was thrown through the passenger side window and another one was laying in the street that was thrown at the drivers side door. How were they thrown at both sides of the car if it was just going one direction? There were people on both sides of the road throwing bricks at this car?

My thoughts as well. I think there are some details missing...
I wonder if a brick thrown from a moving car would justify returning fire with something a little more accurate...

Bricks are dangerous weapons and must be banned.

But if bricks are outlawed only outlaws will have bricks.
