Man Arrested for Yelling at Cars with 'Rep Wheels' from Bus Stop
March 21, 2024

"I guess those 'rep wheels' can really ruin a bus ride."

MIAMI—Local resident Joe Thompson was arrested yesterday for disorderly conduct after reportedly shouting at passing cars with what he described as "rep wheels" while waiting for the bus. Witnesses claim Thompson, known for his love of cars but not owning one, became agitated and began berating drivers for their allegedly subpar wheel choices.


"It was like he was on a mission to educate the world about wheels," said eyewitness Sarah Jenkins. "He was pointing and yelling, telling drivers their wheels were 'replicas' and not the real deal. It was quite the scene."


Thompson's outburst left many drivers amused, but authorities were not amused. Officer Mike Wilson explained, "We received multiple complaints about a man causing a disturbance at the bus stop. When we arrived, Mr. Thompson was still yelling at cars, and despite our warnings, he refused to calm down."


This incident has left many wondering what prompted his outburst. "He's always been a bit obsessed with cars, but this is next level," said neighbor and friend, Tom Davis. "I guess those 'rep wheels' can really ruin a bus ride."


Thompson has been released on bail and is expected to appear in court next week. He will have to take the bus there.
