Rock Thrown Through Window of Cafe Displaying Recall Signs

Incident Report from Madison Police:
Incident Date: 11/15/2011 -6:39 PM
Address: 2710 Atwood Ave
Details: On 11/15/11 at approximately 6:30pm, a rock was thrown through the front window of a cafe in the 2700 block of Atwood Ave. Officers found that the rock was thrown just above a sign supporting the recall of Scott Walker. In addition, there was a note taped to the rock making reference to voting for Kloppenburg. Investigation is ongoing.

A cafe owner on Madison's East side says he is upset someone threw a rock wrapped in an anti-recall message through the window of his Atwood Avenue business.

The owner of The Victory at 2710 Atwood Avenue, Patrick Downey, tells me his business has been displaying "Recall Governor Walker" signs in its window. Tonight, he says a rock flew through the window of his restaurant, "coming within one foot of someone inside".

He says, the rock came through the window with such force he believes a slingshot device might have been used to propel it.

Downey says the rock was wrapped in a message opposing the recall campaign against Governor Scott Walker. "People need to know about this", he says. In addition to displaying signs in favor of recalling Governor Walker, The Victory posted last February on its website, "Half-price coffee drinks Thursday for any and all protesters!"

He has contacted the Madison Police Department.

I can't watch the video on my phone so I don't know if the note text is in it. Anyway, there it is. My friend lives next to the cafe and said his son saw someone lurking around the cafe and the home at 3pm, 3 and a half hours before the incident.
