Someone backed into my car and tried to pin it on me... Do I have any options?
A week ago a police officer came to my door to question me about an incident involving my car. I park on the side of the street in my neighborhood, but because no spaces were open, I parked around the corner in a spot I usually don't use.
The cop showed me pictures he took of a parked orange car backed into mine, practically sitting on my bumper. I had parked there the night before behind a silver car and definitely didn't hit them. The guy who owns the orange car claimed that he parked there at 1 in the morning and no one was behind him; when he came out in the morning he supposedly found my car rammed into his bumper. This is a lie- I had parked my car in that area at 10:30 the night before and didn't drive it again after that. I also have a large dent in my fender from someone kicking it in. There is no damage to either of our bumpers- just the giant dent in my car. The cop and I both think that orange-car guy is probably responsible for that. The officer seemed to think the guy, or whoever was driving his car was coming back from the bars drunk.
The cop took my information and said he was going to talk to orange-car guy again, and also some neighbors to see if they saw/heard anything. I haven't heard back from him yet though. I filed a claim with my insurance just in case the other guy tries to pull something. So far, I haven't heard anything back from my insurance company.
Nothing like this has ever really happened to me, so I'm not sure if there's anything else I should do. I'm really upset that someone would do something so $hitty and then try to blame someone else for it... I really want some sort of justice done if at possible, but I don't really know if I realistically have any options in this situation. Any thoughts or advice? Thanks.

Do a background check on the guy. People who drink and drive typically do it more than once.
