Selected reports from the Bainbridge Island Island Police Department blotter.

THURSDAY, MARCH 15

7:09 a.m. A 24-year-old Bremerton man called police to report an incidence of reckless endangerment. Another man, driving a white Ford Explorer, had thrown rocks or coins out the window of his vehicle while driving in front of the Bremerton man, chipping his windshield.

Police checked the license plate and found the Explorer was registered to a 48-year-old Bremerton man.

The younger man showed police the damage to his car, and told them how the Explorer had been tailgating him on Highway 305. When he pulled onto West Day Road, the man said the other vehicle began to flash him and pass on the left. The man said the other driver flipped him off, got in front of him and began to “brake check” him. Then, he threw his hand up out the window twice, and something struck the younger man’s windshield.

He flashed his lights at the older man, who then stopped throwing things.

The 48-year-old driver had a history of assault and hit-and-run incidents. When the man’s employer, a building construction company, was called, they told police they did have at least one project on Bainbridge Island at the time.

When contacted, the man denied the incident, claiming he would never act that way because he wouldn’t want his kids to act that way. He also said he didn’t drive around with rocks in his truck. He said he believes the younger man was pulling some kind of “windshield scam,” as he himself also has cracks in his windshield.

A report was filed.
