A California man recently posted a video online alleging that a local doctor threatened him with a crowbar and punctured his tire during a heated dispute. The incident occurred somewhere in the Fresno metropolitan area, enraging viewers online.
The story was originally shared on Curbside Detail on Instagram, the professional profile of the man featured in the video, who is an auto detailer from Fresno. It quickly circulated online and was later reposted by Suzie Rizzo on X, where it garnered almost 1,000 likes.
The video shows the incident, which reportedly occurred because the doctor was angry that the man took “his” parking spot by arriving first. In the footage, the two can be seen arguing, and the doctor picks up a crowbar and waves it in the direction of the auto detailer. Later in the video, the man accuses the doctor of slashing his tire. The doctor denies it, but the man does not seem to believe him.
A second clip shows the doctor speaking with the police for a long time. However, as he was not recorded puncturing the tires, the auto detailer was seemingly unable to convince the police that he was responsible. Later, he tries to convince the doctor to pay for the damage, but the doctor declines. It remains unclear how the situation unfolded or whether the man decided to sue.
Internet Reacts to ‘Unhinged’ California Doctor
Social media users were quick to express anger at the doctor, as almost everyone considered him to be in the wrong. One person said, “Wow, what an entitled individual. He does not own the street. It’s public parking.” Another added, “How is this real?” commenting on the absurdity of the situation, while others called the doctor “unhinged.”
Some people, however, did not seem as surprised by the doctor’s behavior. One person stated, “Having worked in the medical field my whole career, if people knew how doctors were behind the scenes, NO ONE would ever go to the hospital.” Another user commented, “I just can’t take the self-entitlement anymore,” expressing disappointment.
These comments highlight how quickly parking disputes can escalate. Fortunately, no one appears to have been physically injured during the incident.
