Aaron was panhandling on a street corner at an intersection. When vehicles were stopped, Aaron would approach the vehicles to ask for money. Aaron approached Jason, who was driving a Tesla, and asked for money. When Jason said he didn't have any cash, but offered Aaron a gift card to a vegan restaurant, Aaron unleashed a slew of expletives. Later that day, Aaron saw Jason's Tesla at a coffee shop. Aaron wrote "I drive a Tesla, buy $ coffee, and can't spare a dollar for a homeless vet" on Jason's windshield with soap. When Jason exited the coffee shop, Aaron said, "How was your $ coffee?" Jason went back inside the store and came out with a handful of wet paper towels from the restroom and cleaned the soap off his windshield.
