SEATTLE - A warning for drivers on Interstate 5 through downtown Seattle: Watch for falling bricks.
Someone threw bricks and rocks from at least two overpasses overnight Thursday, damaging about a dozen cars and injuring one person.

Bricks thrown from I-5 overpasses | Top Stories | NWCN.com | Northwest News and Weather (http://www.nwcn.com/topstories/stories/NW_082508WAB_bricks_overpass_LJ.8d18f698.html - broken link)

***************************

Not a lot you can do about this sort of crime, really. Figured I'd post it here as a warning. At least its not the same as Jersey. There's someone there throwing bricks from their car at people while they drive in the oncoming lane. You're talking about a brick traveling at 50 miles an hour meeting a oncoming windshield at 50 miles an hour.

Whatever the miles per hour....it's gonna suck.

Not too many years ago a gentleman was killed on either SR 18 or Peasley Canyon Rd by this sort of thing. When they catch the d-bag, the should toss him/her/them off an overpass.

Be careful out there.

Wow, I think that qualifies as terrorism. I hope they catch the dirtbags doing this.
