West Perth man charged with assault in road rage incident

A 52-year-old West Perth man has been charged after a road rage incident in Mitchell. It happened Friday afternoon at the intersection of Ontario Road and St. David Street.

The OPP says before the altercation an SUV had pulled out of a lumberyard directly in front of a motorcycle on Highway 8. To avoid a crash the motorcycle had to break hard and pass the SUV.

The SUV then followed the motorcycle very closely and when it pulled over to allow the SUV to pass the SUV pulled over as well. The OPP says the argument that followed led to the SUV driver assaulting the motorcyclist.

He’s been charged with assault and dangerous operation of a motor vehicle.
