It's a misdemeanor charge of simple battery and mischief. You guys need to stop acting like he beat some guy down into a lifeless bloody pulp.

Definitely not the smartest thing he could do, but we don't know what was said to him, which made him get out of the car in the first place. For all we know it was some white guy dropping saying racist things. It could also be as simple as the guy yelling for him to slow down, but I highly doubt that.

His driving record is far more concerning than this incident...

Quote:* Alachua County: A ticket for driving 99 in a 70 ($274 fine) and just three weeks later, he was fined $158 for “failing to stop at a red signal.”

* Pinellas County: Fowler has been ticketed three times in the last six weeks: Driving without insurance (June 11, $166), careless driving (June 15, $166) and a red light violation (July 10, $264).

* Duval County: Fowler has four speeding tickets – December 2015 (74 in a 65), March 2016 (54 in a 45) and November 2016 (74 in a 65) along with the aforementioned July 2016 ticket, which he paid a fine of $450.

He needs to slow it down before something very serious happens to him, or somebody else.

I understand he's young and we all drive fast at times. This pattern of tickets is happening way too often though. It's not just a ticket or two, here or there. It's multiple violations within days and weeks of each other.
