Oh, as I recall, it was. I think I saw some footage of police trying to take him out with their own bulldozers, but it didn't work. Also, I forgot to mention that it was a suicide strike. Man, I really wish I could find an article on it. I need a good laugh.
I only know all of that from browsing around the Naruto wiki site, though. True that I invest a lot in things I care about, though. Too bad it's only slightly helpful as far as practical things are concerned. But, if you're just watching the anime, I can't go into much detail in just how much of a prick Sasuke is, unfortunately. Not that I'd recommend changing that, since the anime seriously is way better, at least in my opinion. Except for Naruto's dub voice. That's the only reason I've opted to watch the entire thing subbed.
