This is really scary. It's not really highlighted in the report, but the majority of the victims have been women. There's been a lot of coverage here over the past few days, and everyone is on high alert. This guy is a maniac, and now that there are good images of his face, he's almost certainly going to be caught soon. I've seen discussion that there are maybe as many as 10 victims now. In the meantime, I'm giving dark grey Teslas a wide berth. 

Quote

 

Another video in Echo Park shows him getting out of the same charcoal Tesla with no rear plates on the 101 freeway and hitting the front of a car with a pipe.

After the most recent encounter on the 2 Freeway this week, the man whose vehicle was struck continued recording, and saw the man in the Tesla pull over and attack another driver.

That second driver told Eyewitness News she had honked at the driver in the Tesla on the freeway.

"All I did was, because he was taking forever to merge, so I just honked," she said.

On the other hand, I discovered on Saturday that we'd failed to lock the front door on our new home an entire week before, when we'd last visited, so it's not totally dangerous out there. :lol:

How is he able to drive around with no plates? Wonder why he has not been pulled over.

It's a good question! The law was recently changed in California where the ticket for not having plates increased substantially. Before, it was very common for new cars to be driven around with just paper dealer tags (literally it would just say something like "Sunrise Ford" etc) or no tags because you could do so for up to six months after purchase. This was known as the "Steve Jobs Rule" since he very famously did just that -- drove a new Mercedes for six months without proper tags then trade it in for a new one, just because he could. Anyway, no longer the law, and you can get pulled over and cited for it. But since there are usually bigger fish for the CHP and LAPD to fry, you're not going to get cited unless you've caught their attention for something else. You can bet that cops are now going to pull over every dark grey Tesla without tags.

Seemed a shortish angry man with a fairly tight haircut, I would have thought fairly easy to recognise. So odd in that respect.

I carry a gun because a cop is too heavy.

He looked a bit young and I guess I hoped somebody of that status would not be a walking bomb.

They're all over the place -- West Hollywood, Glendale, Eagle Rock are the ones I remember. There is speculation on Reddit it could be a cop, but it's kind of hard to believe that given how clear a pic of the guy they have now. Nearest military base is the air force base in El Segundo, which is nowhere near any of those. The rest are pretty far out in the Antelope Valley.

I don't really understand that either.... but then again I have seen multiple people in my town with no plates or made up piece of cardboard with gibberish on it. 

 

He looks military to me.
