While At Work I Was Approached By A Police Officer Asking Me If I Owned A Green Challenger? At First I Was Thinking " Oh Great Someone Backed Into It". The Cop Then Told Me Its Worse Than That! We Walked Outside And The Pictures Are What I Saw! My Heart Broke! I Bought My Baby Brand New Right Off The Lot Just About 6 Months Ago!
Probably some dumbass kid running over the car and put their foot through the glass...Sorry, man. Doesn't look like anything a new windshield and good PDR man couldn't take care of, though.
Yeah...not saying it wasn’t the lesser percent chance it was random, but normally it’s someone you know that was the D bag responsible for ordering it...is it possible the “rubber room guy” was paid by the D bag for drug money?
It Was Actually Just Some Random Guy Off His Meds The Cops Said. They Caught Him. He's In Jail Now. There Was More Damage Than Just The Roof And Trunk.
They Are Repairing It Now. More Than $5000 In Damages So Far. 😖 The Guy Didnt Damage Any Other Car But Tried Pulling A Lady Out Of Her Car And She's The One Who Called The Cops. That's When They Rode Up To The Guy Mid Dancing On My Roof.
In the old days he’d be in an institution, today they let the crazies out and this is what you get. I’m sure if all you keyboard warriors came across him face to face you just might not feel so brave. He’s mentally ill and off his meds which might give him more reason to try and make you look like the car.
If I write what I’d really would call it, then I’ll be labeled as unkind.

It fills me with rage that someone did that to your Challenger. Those pics are horrifying, just utterly horrific.
on a completely unrelated note, I have some random, unrelated questions for you below. Please answer at your leisure.
———————————-
Is the alleged perpetrator still in custody at a local jail/detention center?
What is the name of the city/town closest to you that has a jail for locking up drunks and miscreants while they await trial or a bond hearing?
Would you have any pangs of guilt that you couldn’t deal with if you heard on the news one night your car’s assailant was found beaten and bloodied in his cell one morning soon?
Do you know of any local rock quarries or similarly deserted spots that would be ideal for dumping evidence, errr items that you didn’t want to be found in the future and used against you in a court of law?
There’s an old saying “say it and forget it, write it and regret it”
The key is being very discreet, never put certain things in print.
Awaiting pictures of this car looking like new again.

That's the best question and I was wondering the same thing. If you ever figure that out, Please let me know because I'm not smart enough to figure it out.
I'm Sorry that this happened to you and Hope they make her as good as new for you!
I'm Glad that he was arrested, but I wish that it would've happened before he did that to your Challenger!
Yeah, I like what 'Nuke' said. Payback is a, well you know. I am sorry for you and your new car. Its sad you can't have anything these days.
I don't know how I would have re-acted if I seen someone dancing like a 'Kansas city (beep) ' on one of my cars. 'Blazing Saddles' reference.
I guess I would have called my brother first, and my friend 'Tom' and told them where I was at and what was going on. Then call my wife. Yeah , it just depends.
I really hate that for you 'loveLimeKandy'. I sometimes don't take the Challenger out because of this carp happening around.
Hope it turns out well, and they get it all fixed up for you.
let us know what happens to the punk.
Best wishes

I think that the broken glass can be vacuumed up, if done thoroughly. Windshield glass is laminated. The lamination helps the glass stay together, in case of breakage, as opposed to tempered glass which shatters upon impact and produces countless sharp splinters.
I had my backlight glass shattered and I was able to vacuum up all the glass pieces before Safelite installed the replacement.
I fear the the horrible experience you went through. I've been nervous as hell since I brought my SP to my home that doesn't have a garage and is at street level. Nobody expects to be vandalized, but dumb asses are a dime a dozen.
I've done due diligence in being proactive. I've installed a Ring Floodlight Security System right next to my car. I can see everybody getting in my motion zone. They've all been unsuspecting with not intent on harm.
Lastly, I bought a Springfield Armory Hellcat 9mm to provide my last layer of defense. A couple decals on my house windows give warning........
Ouch... I got a sinking feeling in my stomach when I saw the damage.
It's like seeing someone else getting kicked in the B@!!$.
It didn't happen to you, but somehow, you react like it did.
I just watched a video the other day of a guy who got caught in the act keying an e Class Mercedes. The owner had a pole of some kind in his hand, and beat the crap out of the guy with it, and delivered numerous kicks to the head. He was KO'd....bystanders had to pull him off the young guy, and I bet the car owner is still in jail. It was disturbing to say the least.
This is why you may feel like the exacting revenge but you go from being the victim to being the criminal AND the car is still damaged.
I well understand how much we care for and protect our cars but it’s still just a possession and it’s insured as well.
I too would be sick coming out and seeing my car like that.
