and I have NO luck - first the door gets backed into now this - i need some advice - i'm driving back from the U of MN campus at 2:45 am on 6/19/2003 and a white 15 passenger van passes me (i'm in the slow lane) - I see 4 or 5 males in the van - all the lights are on - the side door opens so i hit the brakes and fall behind the fan (now in the middle lane) he hits his brakes and moves to the far left lane and slows way down . .so i punch it and move back to the right to get around him - at the same time he veers at my car - the door swings wide open and some ASSHOLE throws a large ****ING item at my car - i hear BAAAM and i'm just in shock- the van picks up speed - well above the legal limit and i give pursuit- i followed it to an exit and caught up close enough to grab the license plate - then he hits his brakes and turns onto a side street and i pull a u-turn - i have his license plate EPE 346 - its minnesota plates - is there anything i can do about this? There isn't much damage to my car but there is noticeable paint damage- It was totally unprovoked and i still can't believe it. If someone here knows the laws pretty well let me know my options - i at least want these guys to know that this is not cool - any help would be appreciated

thanks
