Here is what happened:
A friend of mine and his roomate got into an arguement. My friend slammed his hand on the table to told him to "LET IT GO!", but my friends roomate kept yelling and screaming at him from his room. I got up and went in his room and said "just drop it man, let it go!" and he shoved me. I shoved him back and we had what I can best describe as an offensive lineman and a defensive tackle blocking each other in a football game, about a 10 second small pushing contest with each of us grabbing the others arms. THAT WAS IT. I walked out and he yelled he was calling the cops and pressing charges. I told him hes an idiot and nothing happened but if he was pressing charges so would i since he pushed me first. The cops came and he told them he wasnt hurt and had no marks but wanted to press charges. They told him "its pretty much your word against his" since the only witness was my friend and that they wernt sure the state attorny would even take the case.
So should I press charges? or wait? It was very small and dumb but hes a rich kid and called his lawyer and everything. Should I be worried? What can he do? What should I do?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
