Will charges be filed in the murder of Frosty the Snowman?

The AP reports that an Illinois bus driver has resigned after he was caught on tape plowing into a snowman:

URBANA, Ill. — A Champaign-Urbana bus driver has resigned after officials with the transit agency saw an online video of the driver running over a snowman built in the middle of a street.

The video is posted on YouTube. It shows the bus veering toward the snowman on the University of Illinois campus and running over it.

The video was posted after a snowstorm earlier this month and shows only one other vehicle on the street at the time. That car steered around the snowman moments before the bus hit it. It isn’t clear who built the snowman or shot the video.

You can watch the video here.

A couple of things:

1)      Why would the college students build a snowman in the middle of the road knowing the likelihood of it being hit by a vehicle, either intentionally or unintentionally?

2)      That said – who in their right mind would want to run over Frosty intentionally?

I remember reading a story a few years back about a local man who had to set up a video camera in his front yard a couple of weeks before Christmas because the inflatable Frosty he had in the middle of the yard kept getting sharp objects stuck into it, and the owner had to “repair” the Frosty numerous times in order to be able to inflate it each time.  Once he setup the video camera, the guys who were hurting/deflating Frosty were caught and arrested.

Seems to me there’s way too much Frosty rage out there …
