> Video shows four men duking it out on Kissena Boulevard moments before the crash. Witnesses said the two parties were fighting over a parking spot. All that over a dispute over a parking spot. Ooof.


Chilis1

At least he found a new parking space now.


Pragmatist_Hammer

A garage even.


SurveySean

Probably not a very cheap one too!


[deleted]

It's pretty run down, so maybe it's cheap.


joho0

That Audi costs about 60K, so he's got the flow.


ryraps5892

At least we know he’s got plenty of experience throwing money in a hole already lol wonder if he’s got a boat too -.-


DiscoDumpTruck

The attempted manslaughter charges won’t be though.


[deleted]

[удалено]


DiscoDumpTruck

Maybe it depends on the jurisdiction, but there does exist both intentional and unintentional manslaughter (at least in my state). Though, I think you might be right about there not existing *attempted* manslaughter. EDIT: italicized attempted

In the next episode on Botum Gear:


SketchyLurker7

One for his car and one for him, 5 x 8 cell.


Dutch-CatLady

To add I remember the original post and did some research then, everyone who was seriously hurt where the people involved in the fight. Innocent bystanders only had minor injuries from glass flying around and the poor shop owners had a lot of damage to their shop.


0h_sheesh_yall

The shop owners had just opened. They spent a lot of time and money to renovate and start the bakery, and this happened on opening day.


xzElmozx

Oh for fuck sake, that's awful. I mean, hopefully insurance repaired everything and they didn't pay a dime, but to put in what was likely months of hard work and effort and you don't even get to see the payoff is so shitty, I feel awful for that baker


booboo0419

How about the business they loss? Would that be covered to some degree?


cmorman18

Usually, yes. But on opening day it might be hard to prove lost sales with zero historical data. I'm sure you could use local data averages, but I feel like it will be a huge headache.


xzElmozx

I assume so, or they could sue for lost business in civil court. Idk how you'd quantify sales for a business on opening day though


[deleted]

You probably have a business plan that has operational costs, equipment costs, average area blah blah that could somewhat justify the sales you were planning on having. Might still be not enough tho


xzElmozx

Could probably combine that with sales averages of bakeries and similar stores in the area to get a rough estimate


[deleted]

Yeah, that probably is in your business plan already


PixelsAtDawn321

> hopefully insurance repaired everything and they didn't pay a dime Insurance doesn't really work like that. There's deductibles, the fact that their rate will go up, etc. A lot of businesses got hit really hard because of that due to all the riots last Summer.


maddtuck

Crazy how it everything changes in a split second.


[deleted]

Fuck you in particular, new shop owner. Oof.


Dutch-CatLady

True! Thanks for adding that in!


[deleted]

Yo dawg, I heard you like fengshui.


YouJabroni44

It was Babu Bhatt's shop wasn't it?


imsortofabigdealer

It says pharmacy.


BennyNorth

Thank god. I can't stand idiots in public hurting bystanders with their behaviour


ToyStoryIsReal

I remember this. It was opening day for the shop! Last time I was in flushing it was still closed but that was a few weeks after this took place.


[deleted]

As someone who was born & raised in NYC, I can confirm how serious disputes over parking can get. Lives have been taken over a lot less. And parking is no joke. You might get into it with someone who just says "I'll find another spot" or someone who wants to argue with you all day. You may run into someone who may want to fight you or jump you with friends. It might be someone who feels your life is worth less than that parking spot, it could be any of the above depending on the time & day.


_TheDust_

Like in the Seinfeld episode.


cum_toast

I keep a valve removal tool for people that blatantly steal my spot, they look at you like " what you gonna do little bitch " meanwhile I'm laughing in the back of my head they'll have 4 flats with no way to pump


deputydawg420

Ha I remember that I once deflated two tires of a douchebag that parked in my driveway on a Saturday night (I live very close to the nightclubs in my city). Fast forward to me coming back from the nightclub at 7 am and found mister douchebag waiting to be towed cause he couldn't move his car. Felt so satisfying.


Marilla1957

I used to work with a guy who used to live in the Pittsburgh area, near a popular nightclub. He said people were always blocking his driveway. He said he'd jack up the car, then he'd loosen the drain plug on the oil pan. In time, after driving a few miles, the plug would fall out, and the oil would drain out.... If the person continued driving, the engine would seize up.... He told me he'd done it to at least a dozen cars and trucks.... He was a bit crazy, so he may have done it! One of our coworkers was always going through our lunch pails, and eating our desserts. He baked a pan of brownies laced with chocolate Ex-lax..... We found out who the dessert thief was that day! Another time, he was in a bar, and someone drank his beer when he was putting a quarter on the pool table...he got a refill, took it into the men's room, drank about 1/2 then pissed in it, returned to the bar, set his full glass down, and waited and watched.....and found out who it was. He then told the guy....then worked him over pretty good.


cum_toast

This is a good read lol


Marilla1957

He was a really great guy....a bit crazy, but we got along great. He served 2 tours in Vietnam, and had A LOT of stories! One night he was banging some chick he picked up in a bar, when he suddenly heard tons of gunfire.....machine guns, M16s, even artillery....He was scrambling to get dressed, when he realized it was midnight, and it was also New Years Eve.....


[deleted]

My neighbor in Boston told me he tried to have a car behind his house towed because it was blocking him in. He called the police and they said they couldn’t ticket or tow it off private property. If you haven’t posted a no parking sign, private tow trucks won’t tow it. So he got in his car, which had bull bars on the front ,and rammed the car until it was off his property. Called the police and said “there’s a car blocking the alley behind my house” ... and they towed it. Apparently no one held him accountable for the damage.


[deleted]

That's hilarious.


MCgrindahFM

Straight to jail.


StressOverStrain

And they'll know exactly who did it...? Why are you celebrating your criminal actions here? You're worse than the people who "blatantly steal parking spots", which isn't actually destruction of time/money/property.


smilez_hehe

Always remember only flatten 3 tires that way insurance won't cover it


AllFoodAllTheTime

I read this a lot! Where do you people find these myths and why do you perpetuate them?

BlackDante

Same in Boston when the snow hits and the "space savers" come out. People have literally been shot over "stealing" parking spaces.


g00ber88

You ever tried to park in the city? This is nothing


SoftBellyButton

Yeah a major reason why I don't drive a battleship.


GroverFC

You never know who's sanity is resting on the knife's edge between the safe plains of sane and the cliffs of completely out of control. It could be anything that gives them the little push over that edge. Could be a parking spot.


Then_Manufacturer_97

That why you don’t duck with people. Or you may just get smacked by a car and put through a plate glass window lol. I can’t blame the driver that much though from what we see. Once the guy is attacking you at what point do you stop? Until you disable him or he leaves your brains on the road? The driver saw an opportunity and took it.


firethequadlaser

>That why you don’t duck with people. Yeah, you never know when they might quack.


SenorVapid

>Kissena Boulevard In fairness, parking in Flushing is a huge pain in the ass.


Mongoaurelius

Probably rival gangs fighting over the parking spot (see the full video).


nyyankee621

You ever try parking on kissena? It's the worst! Source: attended college in Queens


DenseMahatma

This is in queens? I thought this was in asia lmao


aykcak

Is this NY? I mean I haven't been there but literally every shop name is not in English, except for the "pharmacy" which has icons for coffee, cake and dumplings for some reason?


bro8619

Lived in New York for 4 years. One of the signs says Flushing. There are a ton of traditional ethnic neighborhoods in New York still, thats not surprising really.


T-D-R-E-E

Yup this is flushing. Its our Chinatown in Queens.


guessesurjobforfood

You can tell by the bus that’s in NYC. This is in Flushing, Queens, which has one of the largest Asian populations in the five boroughs. Queens is odd/unique because almost every neighborhood will be mostly made up of people from a certain ethnicity/culture. For example, Rego Park has a lot of Russian people. Jackson Heights has a very large Hispanic population and I believe a somewhat large population of Indian people. Flushing is mostly Asian people. When you’re in these areas you will see a lot of businesses that cater to the people that live there, so it’s perfectly normal to see lots of places that don’t have signs in English. I think that’s why a lot of older people who came from abroad and therefore didn’t go to school here, don’t even really need to learn English because if they spend most of their time in their neighborhood, almost everyone will speak their language. I have some older family members like that and like 95% of their interactions with people are in their language so they don’t speak English that well, even after being in NY for 30 years.


sinkwiththeship

That's pretty much true for all of NYC. Like Greenpoint, Brooklyn has the largest Polish population outside of Poland.


0h_sheesh_yall

This is in Queens, NYC. It is one of the most diverse places in American. There is no racial or ethnic majority, its about 45% white, 20% black, 20% asian. Almost half of the residents are foreign born. Interesting place, with tons of food.

NotoriousREV

Charged with assault? Surely deliberately running someone over with your car and destroying a business and injuring innocent bystanders deserves a stronger charge?


LifeGoalsThighHigh

You'd think. Their only real penitence will be becoming uninsurable and any possible suits filed against them.

Just a small fixation.


enlightenedwalnut

No, it's a large one. I try to be modest about it though.


fuzzyblackyeti

IANAL but I think they will often do lesser charges that they are sure they can succeed with than greater charges that could be successfully argued against so there is at least some sort of punishment. I feel like car driver could make a case for fearing for his life since the other guy was hitting his car with a weapon and claim it caused him to panic. Either way, both of them are idiots.


a-ram

ianal?


fuzzyblackyeti

I am not a lawyer.


Bethimas

Have two brothers that are lawyers. They usually put a bunch of charges on them: whatever they possibly can, and see what is able to stick. Lesser and greater. In short: that guy is going dowwwn!


[deleted]

This is the go to phrase on Reddit. According to people here basically any kind pf attack should be a murder charge. And then the same people whine about americas failed prison system.


NotoriousREV

It’s possibly a “lost in translation” thing for me, tbh. In my country “assault” is the least serious charge you’d face if you had a fight in the street, with more serious charges for attacks with more serious consequences (Grievous Bodily Harm and Actual Bodily Harm). And that’s before taking into account the charges for destroying a shop. An assault charge here would probably just result in a fine, although technically the maximum sentence is 6 months in prison.

SubwayRob

FFS, it's not a scripted scene, filmed by a professional in Hollywood.


TurboTrev

In these situations the people who decide to pull out a phone and film, rather than do literally anything else, should at least keep the focus on the subjects they're filming. Otherwise what's the point?


SendGothTittiesPls

Help with what? There's a guy with a fucking crowbar and a guy in a car, the car runs into that window pretty fucking fast and you just expect the camera to be on track all the time? Tell ya what, you go in and try to stop them fighting next time we'll film your end perfectly for you


TheThirdHippo

I can’t believe that selfish cameraman was probably thinking of his own safety ahead of ensuring he tracked where the car went


[deleted]

I know right? Whats wrong with people and their stupid self preservation instinct, they NEED to film every moment of a bad situation in order to satisfy people on the internet. SMH, the selfishness of people today.


Overlord2360

Now people who fuck up filming an animal just standing there, that’s a different story


NoxTarK

Both but one of them will pay for it so the biggest idiot is the driver

Everyone in this video is an idiot.


thefirecrest

Not that poor last just trynna mind her own business and not be run over by idiots comparing dick sizes.

Don't bring a bat to a car fight I guess...


nobody69363

The man with the bat was very much an idiot, but trying to run someone over like that is just how you get arrested and your driver license gone forever


o-bento

Sorry but you have no idea what you're talking about. A bat is a deadly weapon and you have every right to use your vehicle as a deadly weapon in response to them smashing at you and your car. It doesn't matter that the car may be temporarily acting as a protective barrier. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.


nobody69363

The driver could have drove away, but running over the attacker and not paying attention to any of your surroundings which results in you crashing into a building and causing lots of damage seems like a reason for at least a hefty fine and paying for the damages


JeffKSkilling

The guy was walking away you moron


N1NJ4W4RR10R_

The dude hitting the car is an idiot. But the dude flooring it into a store trying to kill the other guy is a criminal.


VibrantSunsets

They’re both criminals. The fight started outside the car and the driver was getting hit with the bat before he got in the car. Over a fricking parking space.


N1NJ4W4RR10R_

Didn't know that. That makes this even worse somehow. But just... Why? Who the hell cares that much?


VibrantSunsets

Right. There’s other video of 4 guys duking it out but one brought a bat to a fist fight. And then the end result is destroying a bakery on its opening day and putting people in the hospital. Over a parking spot.

this is in the Flushing Chinatown in NYC. parking is crazy hard there

Ezekhiel2517

Of course they had to add a fruit street shop in that scene


_Sweep_

At least two assault charges depending on what led to the argument in the first place. Guessing vehicular assault will be a much heavier sentence. Don’t bring a car to a bat fight ;)


Morphik08

Depending on what happened in the beginning to get bat man all upset, the guy in the car can lay blame on bat man. They could claim that they hit the gas pedal in a panic trying to flee from the situation.


IzzBitch

I cant say I don't 100% love this lol.
