Dude's kid dinged the frick out of my truck door

While I was sitting it my truck at Auto Zone. It's to the metal and also made a small dent. It was the edge of the door of a Honda Accord, which comes to like a point. I got out of my truck and he apologized but I asked him to pay to fix it. It's a 4 month old truck. We exchanged cell numbers and I wrote down his plate. Of course I call the number and it goes straight to a message saying the voice mail is not set up. I can see two cameras on the parking lot so I am sure it's on camera. Call the cops? Will I get shot? I have no dogs with me.

I would go get a dog and then definitely call the cops.
But for real... call the cops.

Find him. Kill him. But really, you should probably call the cops and give them the license plate and report it because they will/can find him, and he could be charged as a criminal to the full extent of the law.

I would chalk it up to bad luck and let it go. Fix it myself if I felt so inclined, but probably just drive it.

Cops will likely tell you it happened on private property and therefore is not their problem. If you can't get the guy to pay up, which you likely won't be able to, then you'll just have to file with your own insurance.
ETA: I could be wrong, but I've convinced myself my answer is correct.

shite happens, deal with it.

Why don't you just try calling him a few more times first?

Either pay to have it fixed or drive it like it is.
btw it's a truck.

why didn't you get his insurance info?

Call police, file incident report. Hopefully they'll pull the owners info from the plate/registration.
Call the owner, tell him you filed police report and ask for his insurance info.
Have his insurance pay for the repairs.
I'd also go talk to the auto zone folks about getting a copy of the footage.
ETA, an incident report is what they'll generate, won't do a full accident report for private parking lot.

Why would you call the cops? Was a crime committed?

You shouldn't park so close to other cars
Shame on you for trying to blame a child

You got that kid's arse beat.

Just go to the junkyard and find another truck door.
Posted on 10/22/14 at 2:00 pm to NittanyLionsRoar
Definitely call the cops over a door ding.
Posted on 10/22/14 at 2:01 pm to NittanyLionsRoar
Try calling him and if he takes care of it good. Otherwise let it go; it's a truck. Research who is at fault with a door ding. Due to the low cost and big hassle involved in establishing fault in court you're better off letting it go if he won't cover it.
If I were him I wouldn't pay for it. shite happens in parking lots. I get a new ding every week to my truck while watching my wife lose her mind over dings in her SUV.

Why the frick are you at Auto Zone? You have a four month old truck. We're you getting some truck nutz?
Posted on 10/22/14 at 2:03 pm to NittanyLionsRoar
text him and tell him to call you...jeez
Posted on 10/22/14 at 2:03 pm to NittanyLionsRoar
Pretty fricking dumb. If I was not willing to take the ding I would have demanded insurance papers and made the call.
