Next up, there was quite a commotion in a quiet Coventry suburb as a man was apparently hit in the head with a rock during a heated road-rage incident. It all started on Lower Ford Street in Hillfields, when a Mercedes driver was rear-ended by an SUV while turning onto a roundabout from a junction.
As the Mercedes driver began taking photos of the damage, the other driver got out of his vehicle and approached him, according to witnesses. A video of the altercation shows the two men exchanging punches for several minutes, with passersby and onlookers watching on.
The situation escalated when the Mercedes driver, who had been pushed to the other side of the road, grabbed a rock and struck the other motorist on the head. The video then captures the SUV driver getting back into his car and intentionally ramming into the side of the Mercedes before crashing into some nearby bushes.
In the video, it can be seen that the SUV driver is wearing beige and the Mercedes owner is wearing white. The two men continue to brawl before eventually returning to their respective vehicles as the video ends. The person filming the incident, who wished to remain anonymous, can be heard saying "road rage" after a bystander asks what is going on.
According to the filmer, the whole incident began when the Mercedes driver pulled out from the junction even though it wasn't his right of way. The driver behind him began honking, causing the Mercedes to brake suddenly and the SUV to hit it from behind. The filmer also mentions that the other driver initially tried to run the Mercedes driver over before the physical confrontation began.
Authorities have confirmed that a man has been arrested in connection with the incident. The filmer expressed shock at the scene, describing it as something out of a movie and noting that there was a lot of blood.
In a statement, the police confirmed that they received reports of a collision on Lower Ford Street around 7pm on Wednesday, involving two vehicles. They also mentioned that a disorder broke out following the collision and that one man has been arrested on suspicion of affray and has been released on bail while the investigation is ongoing.
