NY Times: Unarmed Man Is Charged With Wounding Bystanders Shot by Police Near Times Square:

An unarmed, emotionally disturbed man shot at by the police as he was lurching around traffic near Times Square in September has been charged with assault, on the theory that he was responsible for bullet wounds suffered by two bystanders, according to an indictment unsealed in State Supreme Court in Manhattan on Wednesday.

I hope this gets smacked down pretty damned hard. "Now look what you made me do" is pretty much textbook abuser.
