It was no longer a prank! A 65-year-old man from Telfs in Tyrol kept throwing stones at cars from his balcony, probably out of hatred for drivers. Now the police have cracked down. 

The local man has been keeping the police busy for some time. Police officers have to go to his apartment time and again. The 65-year-old has apparently set up a "high seat" on the balcony and is hunting down motorists. 

65-year-old is now in prison
On Whitsunday, the Tyrolean man broke the camel's back. "The man repeatedly threw stones at passing vehicles on the local road below his home," reported the police. The 65-year-old was visited by law enforcement officers shortly before 9 pm. They arrested him and took him to Innsbruck prison by order of the public prosecutor's office.
