Granted we don't have all the details here, but the article makes it sounds like this guy tried to follow a car out and negligently hit the gate. Unless this man intentionally rammed the gate, shouldn't this just be a civil case for damages? Felony Criminal Mischief seems a bit extreme. Maybe RECKLESS DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION.

From the article:
Surveillance video from the Aspen Heights apartment complex in College Station, recorded about 4 a.m. Aug. 30, shows a pickup driver trying to exit behind a car. When the complex's security gates closed after the car went through, the truck accelerated, causing $9,800 damage, police said.
