Revenge is a two bladed sword

2003 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

This took place in Tunari (the outskirts of Bucharest), Romania on the 25th of October 2003. It all began as an argument in traffic between a truck driver and the owner of a car that was parked in the middle of the road. Shortly, the road being blocked more trucks arrived and more drivers joined the argument.The "local boy",who blocked the road and refused to move the car,was also joined by local friends.The argument turned into a fight.Overwhelmed by the locals the truckers drove to the parking of a gas station and called the Police.As the police took declarations, one of the locals decided to take his revenge and teach the truckers a lesson. So the local tough guy (L.F.,18 years old) sneaked by the crowd with ninja sword in his hand and decided to flatten the tires of a truck.He succeeded but the pressured air in the tire came out as a powerful jet turning the sword onto our Darwin not only stabbing him but smashing his head open.The man died in under a minute showing us all that revenge is indeed a two bladed sword.

A Romanian might not know that truck tires use higher pressures than cars do, but I love the poetic justice. (let's block the road just for the hell of it , then pick a fight with the truckers)
