An upset father behind the wheel of an excavator took aim at Vermont State Police troopers as they attempted to arrest his son. Dramatic dash came footage, which state police released Thursday, shows the June 14 incident.

In the video, two troopers attempt to arrest the son, identified by WCAX as 24-year-old Brandon Tallman, who was wanted on assault and burglary charges. While responding to his parents' house in Hardwick, they "suddenly found themselves in an unexpected and dangerous situation," state police said in a post on Facebook. /SNIP

And I do not include our fine President Joseph Robinette Biden in that remark in any way shape or form.
