I was sat in my car last week in a car park, some guy pulled up in the next space to me quite close. He could see that I was in the car but did not think twice about opening his door hard and nailing my wing mirror, idiot. A rather large argument ensued 
A similar thing happened to my mate at college. theres no parking there but we all park on the small housing estate opposite thats still under construction, so theres lorrys that go by so you have to park all on the same side close to the curb. but yesterday this builder see's my mate hugh parking up and to cut a long story short, they have a bit of an argument weather he has the right to park there and whether the car is obstructing the lorrys coming by, anyway it ends a bit sour and hugh leaves his car there, comes bacck to it at the end of college and the wing mirror on the pavement side is lying perfectly placced infront of his car!
infact thinking about it its no way similar to your encounter
oh well its sort of relevant
