cops were just back, they had a chat with buddy and he's seen the light and dropping the charges as my counter charge was against both him and his wife. Talk about small town drama. The female cop was the one who said their report shows him coming at me and I only hit him once, I didn't do anything else after that. The best part is there is a mutual peace bond. I guess I'll hear all about it from the town gossips. I have no marks on me at all, he on the other hand has a nice bruise on his jaw by his ear.
