Maricopa County Sheriff’s deputies arrested a Fountain Hills man following a suspected road rage incident Thursday, Oct. 13.

Deputies reported the suspect actually walked into their office to report the other man had “cut him off” in traffic.

During the course of their investigation deputies determined it was the man who reported the incident who eventually became the aggressor, and he admitted to many of his actions.

He got out of his car to challenge the other driver at a traffic light, going so far as to open the car door. He then followed the other car to a parking lot where he got out again and took a stick from his back seat and approached the other man, brandishing the stick.

These incidents were also witnessed by others.

The man faces charges of aggravated assault.
