maybe his handicap is not physical?
If no handicap placard it's tow truck time. Or someone with a placard could hem them in for a day or two
When I was in charge of parking enforcement at work I took great pleasure in towing people that do E36 M3 like that!

lots of businesses won't call the tow companies, their excuse is that they don't want to POff their customers by having their cars towed 
Get four guys and throw it over the fence?

That was my thought, but it was gone by the time I got back from my lunch walk.
Frankly I'm impressed that:
A Fiat actually can take up 2 parking spots
That it's not a handicapped plate (besides mentally)
That I didn't have enough people to pick it up and toss in the nearby dumpster

Or two guys and pivot the back end over into a single spot.
Very high-end dickbagedness, managing to double park, over a handicapped spot even, with a 500.
That had to have been staged just to get the picture!
I don't know where you work, but since every business must have a handicap spot we have and maintain one. Due to the nature out our business, Santa Claus is more likely to land in our lot in July than a handicapped person. Never been used in 11 years.
sadly not staged. Granted, I've never seen the spots used. Even people that have stopped at our office (not public building) with the correct plates haven't used the spots.
You guys are missing the message….the owner is lamenting that he’s handicapped by not having rear wheel drive and he’s using his car to metaphorically point to the correct drive train configuration.
I'd call the police. I'm sure they would be happy to write a ticket.
edit: I checked to make sure, and in Michigan police can ticket cars parked in disabled spots on private property. http://www.legislature.mi.gov/(S(iirjm2n4pcchkhej5a3rnlhi))/mileg.aspx?page=GetObject&objectname=mcl-257-674
I like his swagger.
Andre the Giant used to pick up people's cars and stick them between light poles or telephone poles or whatever where they couldn't get them out. He thought that was funny.
Was it a client, supplier, or fellow employee?

Somewhere in France, a guy who had to pay to have his Renault pulled out of a phone pole sandwich smirked as he read about that bastard dying in his hotel room of congestive heart failure.
The article I read years ago said he would do that to his friends. It was an interesting read. Obviously acromegaly. Untreated and undiagnosed, I think. Certainly undiagnosed when it hit him. Anyway, he would go into a restaurant, look at the menu and say "OK." One of each. And some beer (A Bunch of Beer):
And no one slipped in behind him on the striped lines?
Oh yeah, I'm a dick.

Have you ever parallel parked in France. This kind of distance between bumpers is the norm:
I tell ya, those Parisians would laugh at our simple parallel parking test to get a driver's license.
In my college days, if I had the doors and/or top off of Muffin (Jeep TJ) I'd make it a point to squeeze/block douche bags like that in.

The thing we run into is, you get one person who parks "wherever" and then everyone else has to follow suit because have like 10 parking spaces. Then when the first people leave, you have one person left whose car is double parked. They weren't the dick, they were just making do with the "spots" available.
(I guess this is the difference between "back when I was (n)" and now)
Did you think maybe a group of guys picked it up and put it there? When my dad was in high school, he had a Fiat Topolino(little mouse). He was suspended for a week because his buddies picked the car up and put it sideways in front of the schools front door. Pretty cool considering they had to go up a flight of stairs to get to where the front door was.
