Harassment

Last Saturday I took two of my grandchildren shopping with me. We went to the grocery store, we picked up window treatments and then stopped at Rita’s water ice. Dominic is ten-years-old and such a big help to me. Adriana is three.

My neighbors across the street were having a yard sale. There front yard was crowded with shoppers. There was nowhere for me to park. I pulled as close as I could to the right side of the street, so cars could get by with ease.

A woman yelled across and said I will move my car for you. I told her no worries I was just unloading my car. After unloading the children and my purchase’s I went to get back in my car.

A car pulled up next to me and stopped. The man in the car started screaming at me. I have NO idea why, I wasn’t blocking him and I was about to go park. He told me he was a police officer and I was getting tickets. There was more said but charges are being filed so I cannot really say more than he was NOT a police officer.

I was terrified and worse my grandkids were scared. My neighbors and the yard sale shoppers told me to call 911. I’m glad I did. For those of you who are new to my blog, my brother David, was murdered in a random road rage attack. I’m hoping I’ve stopped this guys anger from escalating to physical violence.
