Police are looking for a man who punched his own vehicle, and then the curb, in a fit of rage in Lower Sackville, N.S., Wednesday night.

Nova Scotia RCMP say they received a call at around 8 p.m. of a disturbance on Nordic Crescent.

Police arrived to learn that a woman with a child in the car stopped at the intersection of Pinehill Drive and Glendale Drive to let a pedestrian cross.

As she stopped, police say a man driving behind her swerved into another lane, honked his horn and yelled at her.
