Man rams car, claims to be Jack Bauer:
BALTIMORE – A college student was given probation for repeatedly ramming his car into another man’s vehicle, claiming the man was a terrorist and he was the character Jack Bauer, a federal agent on the Fox television show “24.”
(…)
According to charging documents, Sullivan was driving his Ford Escape on Interstate 95 last February when he struck Cantoral’s van. Cantoral left the highway and was struck a second time before he drove over a grass median strip and fled on foot into the lobby of the Patuxent Institution Correctional Facility.
Sullivan followed Cantoral inside and tried to assault him, shouting “he’s a terrorist,” according to charging documents.
“My name is Jack Bowers (Bauer) and I work for the FBI and the Secret Service. My wife and family was kidnapped by the president and terrorist,” Sullivan continued, The (Baltimore) Examiner reported Friday, citing charging documents.
Fans of 24 will remember this as a major sub-plot of Season One.
“This is rather embarrassing for him,” Sullivan’s attorney Charles Broida said after the court appearance.
“It was bizarre, but he doesn’t remember it.”
No ? really ?
