Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
My best friends vehicle was parked on Gladstone Avenue (near Wyandotte) near his apartment tonight when a black or dark blue Dodge Caravan (the newer style) backed into his vehicle. This happened at approximately 12:20 am. The driver hit the parked car so hard that it was pushed up onto the curb and popped the tire. The driver took off. So if anyone sees a newer version Dodge Caravan that would have damage to the back bumper or even possibly the tail light please contact the Windsor Police with the license plate number. If you saw the accident or live in the area and know who this might be, please contact the police. We think the person may have been visiting with someone in the area as the van was parked on the road for awhile this evening. My friends vehicle is silver, so there may even be some paint transfer onto the van. The damage to the vehicle was pretty extensive and it is unfair to leave my friend stuck with the bill! Any information will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Just before it started to rain tonight I was riding my bike on riverside drive to the peace fountain, by the time i got there it was raining and i was caught in the storm. So i started to head back home. I was riding on the side walk because it was dark and raining, I didn't want to get hit by a car. I stopped at a red light on an intersection, waited until it turned green then also waited for the cars that had their turn signals on the turn before i even came off the side walk on the road. There was a red charger or cameo (idk cars very well) that was stopped with no turn signal on, as i got close to the other side of the street he started slowly turning, that's when i noticed he had his cell phone to his ear, I figured he was just setting up for a turn once i passed, but i was wrong. He quickly speed up once i was in front of his car then slammed on the breaks making me have to speed up and ride my bike into a bush. I am not impressed at all.
Anybody see a gray vehicle (Malibu I think) with passenger side (had to be front or back comer) damaged. Take a picture of it and plate. This person 40-50 year old male Caucasian hit my car and left. Worst thing is, I walked passed him going to ATM, RBC Albert/ Tecumseh, Monday April 28 5:05pm. Spread the word so I can try to track this guy down. I'm hoping the cameras at the bank gets him.

Windsor Fencing Co. Went to inquire about them installing a fence. While trying to explain our property/ needs, the woman was so unbelieveably rude, rolling her eyes just as we walk in the door, every question we asked shes huffing and puffing and rolling her eyes. I've never been treated so poorly by anyone, ever, nevermind someone who your trying to give business to. Successful business is created from successful customer service, and yours is disgusting!
This morning on my drive to work, I saw two dogs walking loose together on the sidewalk on Dominion between Totten and Holy Names high school. This is not the first time I have seen them walking around by themselves, I could not see any owner near them (I may have missed it but I don't think so). One is a pug and the other looks like a boxer mix (I think it's a boxer mix because of the boxer like face but it seems smaller than most boxer breeds I know) I am really concerned for their safety as Dominion is REALLY busy in the mornings with the schools around it. People often try to pass around the buses as they stop for passengers and I would hate to see one of these dogs injured, especially since the pug is so small it would not be easy to see. If you are the owner or know these dogs please let them know about this issue. (I didn't know if 'bad sighting' really fit but it certainly didn't make me happy to see so I went with it)
To the disgusting prices of gas. I was told last weekend that it could get as high as $1.50 a litre this summer in Windsor Ontario area. So annoyed with this, there must be something we can do. I am already looking to start a carpool with 3 other co-workers and they are glad we are doing it. How are we supposed to enjoy vacations and afford things in general with Gas prices that are this high and only getting higher.
This must be STOPPED
To the Awful Mom at Hetherington grade school that picked up her daughter in the silver car. You do know it is ILEGAL and just STUPID to light a cigarette while your daughter is bouncing around in the back seat while driving. It was raining so your windows were up. Hope your daughter grows up to be a better person then you.
