A witness saw the incident on Nov. 29 and reported it to police. The witness says a man got out of his truck, climbed the steps of a transport truck cab and punched the driver. The incident happened on Highway 214 in Elmsdale during heavy traffic because Highway 102 was closed at the time and traffic was being detoured through Elmsdale.

The witness followed the driver to a nearby bank and “noted signs of impairment.” The witness gave police the truck’s licence plate and description, and police were able to identify the driver.
