Passing through a small town yesterday had the van sprayed by small projectiles, launched via catapults by a group of youths in hoodies, a number of loud ping's made me jump as looked down the street they were lined up firing at vehicles. I stopped further up the road and no damage had been done. But it was a bit of shock I guess the large white camper was target they could not miss.
Just wish i had my NERF gun loaded with brussel sprouts onboard i would of got the wife to return fire;) On serious note this could of caused an accident or damage has anyone else been shot at on the road?
 
At least it was not marbles or ball-bearings etc......Potentially lethal.
and a broken windscreen

As per a silly song..
To market to market went my brother Jim
and somebody threw a tomato at him.
Now tomatoes are soft and they don't hurt the skin
but this one it did , it were wrapped in a tin

Of course if you had retaliated the consequences would have been worse for you...

As per Monty Python "Run away! Run away!"

I have had eggs thrown at the car and they cut through the paint where the shells hit.
 
Worked on the M60 extension when we made it a full ring road. Local kids would hang around on the bridges over the jobsite armed with scaffold poles. Their mates would set fire to a machine or something up the site, & when the security landrover came up the site they would drop the poles off the bridge & try to harpoon the landrover. Little feral bastards just about wrote the landrover off by the time they'd finished...

Whilst taxi driving Ive had eggs thrown on three separate occasions,stones,wood and a brick which smashed the passenger window all by feral youths.The eggs dry like concrete if you don't wash them off immediately .
 
Lightly salt sprouts ,grate cheese over them and then grill,also you can dip in dripping and fry.
