You can no doubt sue him for the damages, but that would be a bigger hassle than 250 bucks is worth. But, i think it might be worth threatening him with suing him for the entire amount unless he pays your 250 deductible. I dunno how it works, you could probably even initiate a small claims court case for the whole amount then tell him to give you 250 and hope he does it.

I'm not sure what the police heard, but if he admitted in front of the police, you can probably tell him the cop said he'd testify for you or something.
