We have GOT to hear the backstory! Did he launch a rock into the sheriff's windshield with the trebuchet to his right?
Eggman, not quite. He is one of my 5 grandchildren, and his father is my youngest son, and also the sheriff who is approaching with caution. Every Friday night is pizza night here at the homestead, and whatever kids and grand kids are around come by for dinner in the back yard. The suspects father was on his meal break, and the suspect had just hit his 3 year old cousin with a slice of pizza. Not sure if that is a felony or a misdemeanor, but that is for his dad to figure out. What really is funny is that his dad used to do the same thing when he was in trouble. Sort of a "if I can't see them, they can't see me" method of defense. Seldom works.
So glad this was a humorous story. When I saw the image, my mind instantly started racing towards negativity. Like the Sheriff was there to deliver bad news about the boys family. Even after reading the story, while I'm typing this my heart is still racing... :-(

John,
Sorry to have triggered a cardiac event!!
To all my other fellow FM'ers
Thanks for all of the comments. I'd like to say it was a rare moment....but this kid is a perpetual motion machine with very little predictability. Then again, I was always sure his dad was going to be involved in law enforcement, but not necessarily on the side he landed on. As anyone who has raised kids understands, ya never know.!
