MANCHESTER, NH — On May 4, 2020, at approximately 1:20 p.m. a man reported that he had been assaulted with a baseball bat in a road rage incident. The man said he was in the car with his son who was learning to drive when another car cut them off on Granite Street. His son beeped the horn at the driver.
At that point, the person in the passenger seat of the other vehicle started waving a baseball bat out of the window. When the two cars turned north onto Commercial Street and were side by side, the passenger reportedly got out, questioned why they had beeped, and then struck the father twice with the bat.
