Mud Bog may-lay

CHARLOTTE COUNTY - Sheriff's deputies arrested a Fort Myers man at the Redneck Yacht Club early Saturday morning for driving over a small car several times with his four-wheel drive van.
The incident occurred at the annual “Swamp Cabbage Weekend," which draws thousands of people to eastern Charlotte County.

During the event, trucks, vans, ATVs and other vehicles negotiate water and mud pits at the 800-acre park.

According to the Sheriff's Office, they received a call at 5:05 a.m. to the park in the 44000 block of Bermont Road.

A young girl said she left her 1994 Toyota Corolla in a field near the concert stage and went “mudding” with friends.

While she was at the mud pit, someone told her a vehicle was run over. She went back and realized it was her car that was crushed and contacted security.

A private security guard told deputies he saw several people run toward a vehicle parked in the field. He said a large crowd gathered and spectators were urging two large trucks to run over the car. The crowd shouted: “The owner doesn't care. You can do it.”

The two trucks attempted to run over the hood but could not. They then left.

The guard said a large white camouflaged van with five-foot wheels arrived, and the crowd again egged on the driver.

The driver of the van put the front tire on the front of the car, smashing the hood, backed off, then drove to the other side and put his other tire on the hood, smashing it again. He then drove over the entire car several times.

Another witness led the deputies to the driver, who was identified as Norman Le Nowling, 40, of Ft. Myers.

Nowling taken to the Charlotte County jail on a felony charge of Criminal Mischief. He posted $2,500 bail.

That's why you park you car in the parking lot near other cars not out somewhere by itself. If I was the owner of a large truck and people told me to run it over I would tell them to get bent unless and event organizer or the owner shows me the title.
