The hitchhiking robot known as hitchBOT was destroyed over the weekend. And now we finally have footage of the jerk who did it. Vlogger Jesse Wellens posted the footage below to Snapchat. It shows a lone man in a sports jersey repeatedly kicking hitchBOT.

Judging from the timecode, the person kicks hitchBOT at 5:46 in the morning on Saturday, August 1. Without more context, it’s hard to say why this man destroyed the beloved robot. But this person clearly has some anger issues.
I think I know who will be first against the wall during the robot uprising.
