Sometimes it just doesn't pay to be a good samaritan.

According to a police report, on March 21st, an employee of a motel or apartment building (it's unclear in the report) in the 2400 block Aurora Ave N contacted a man who he believed had broken in to rooms in the building over the past few nights to sleep.

When the employee confronted the supposed squatter, the man pulled out a screwdriver and threatened the employee. In response, the employee grabbed a shovel and chased the man onto Aurora Ave.

The man jumped in front of a car headed north on Aurora, and the driver screeched to a halt.

The report says the driver thought the squatter was "about to be viciously assaulted" by the employee and told the man to get into her car. As the woman drove off, the employee hit the woman's car with his shovel, leaving a dent.

The report appears to indicate that the driver dropped the squatter off and contacted police about damage to her car.

The woman provided officers with the squatter's phone number, but police were not immediately able to contact him. The woman told police she wanted to pursue charges against the shovel-wielding employee who damaged her vehicle.
