Police have charged a 32-year-old Narre Warren man following an alleged road rage incident in Watsonia last month.
It is believed a male driver in a grey Holden 4WD was travelling along Grimshaw Street when he collided with a Holden hatchback on Friday, February 14 about 3:20pm.
The driver of the hatchback then got out of his car and allegedly assaulted the male victim, before smashing the victim’s car window with an axe.
The 32-year-old Narre Warren victim sustained minor injuries and was treated at the scene.
The offender fled the area, heading in an unknown direction of travel.
Police have since arrested the 41-year-old Wattle Glen man who has been charged with driving whilst suspended, careless driving, assault with a weapon, among several other charges.
He was remanded at the Heidelberg police station watchhouse and will appear before the Heidelberg Magistrates’ Court after 10am today.
