I was out yesterday showing some family friends the property when I found one of my double gates bent. It had been pushed in without removing the pin and is now stuck. There were obvious tire tracks on the other side being that we got hammered with storm recently they are fresh. This is a crossed fenced gate. It should be easy to fix by cutting pin out with a torch and putting in a new one. The posts and hinges are fine.
I've got the last cow/calf pair on that part from a neighbor I was leasing it to. The most likely case is he came to get the last one and backed into the gate with his trailer. He hasn't called me or my wife.
How do I approach this? It happen maybe Thursday/Friday and I found it Saturday.
What's the old country etiquette for this?

just make sure both sides are chained so it cant be removed and repair it....

You fix it and go on about your business, without saying a word.

Push it back best you can with the front of your truck and call it a day.
