"Even though it may seem relatively minor, the rock could have caused significant injury," Sheriff Rick Staly said in a press release. "Drivers need to remember to control their anger and don’t escalate incidents. Call us instead and let our deputies investigate the situation. Otherwise, you will see the inside of the Green Roof Inn and that could have been avoided if you control your anger and actions."
