Athol Driver Regrets Drunken Pick-Up

An Athol man quickly regretted picking up a drunk man who was laying in the middle of a downtown Coeur d'Alene street last weekend. According to police, Micah A. Wulff, 25, allowed the man into his truck just before 3 a.m. on Saturday but kicked the man out while northbound on Ramsey Road. The angry man struck Wulff's truck, then swung at Wulff with a metal baton when confronted, according to the Kootenai County Sheriff's Department. The man then “racked” the slide of a pistol and pointed it at Wulff. Wulff drove away and called police/Meghann Cuniff, Sirens & Gavels. More here.

Question: Do you give rides to hitchhikers or other strangers?
