Brookline Police report a Hammond Pond Parkway resident awoke yesterday morning to find "the front bumper [of his car] was missing which contained the fog lights and headlights."

Meanwhile, Jose Anes discusses the art of Masshole parking, in which people see bumpers as an excuse for parking like, well, Massholes:

... A young, white, well dressed lady (as in expensive) just got out of the establishment, entered her brand new Audi. I saw an opportunity to grab this coveted parking spot. Then, without any respect for her parking-mate she backs up into the car parked right behind her and BAM!! She pushed the car behind her just enough to make some space, turn her wheels and get out of there. There was even plenty of space to make an elegant exit had she tried to move back and forth a few times, which can suggest that maybe she did it out of laziness or lack of respect of other’s property. ...
