NOT THE SHARPEST KNIFE IN THE DRAWER: With A Cue But Without A Clue
Richard Brooks, 50, of Concord, CA, was offended by the skeletons on the leather Harley-Davidson jackets a group of bikers was wearing and what he thought was their tough-guy posturing. He was also allegedly drunk as a skunk, when he drove his car straight at the bikers and then got out and approached them on foot while waving a pool cue. Unfortunately, he got smacked into the highway by his own car, which he had left in reverse gear. To their credit, the bikers – who did not instigate the incident, according to police – pulled Brooks to safety. Brooks was arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon and driving under the influence.
