Report to your ins. co. In future regardless of minor damage insist on calling the police. Then you have a witness, an other person might back off on being a wise %$#.

Are there any video cameras in the parking lot that may have picked up the accident? This could be used to prove your case. If you haven't contacted your insurance, has the other driver? If so, your insurance may have a problem with you not reporting the problem. I would try to make contact with the guy and find out what his intentions are. Is he suing, filing a claim, exactly what he wants to do to work things out. If you feel confident that there was minimal damage(under 250.00)take photos of the guy's tow ball, and rear of vehicle and present them to your insurance company. They can assist you from there.
