Gardening Tools Brandished During Wallsend Road Rage

BY LAUREN FREEMANTLE

We're being reminded to keep our cool after prangs on the road, following an alarming road rage incident at Wallsend.

Police say a Holden Commodore and an Isuzu ute were involved in a minor collision yesterday afternoon on the Newcastle Link Road before one motorist reportedly drove away.

The other driver followed, and the two vehicles eventually came to a stop, with several people allegedly pulling out garden tools and using them to damage each other's cars.

Officers arrived on the scene too late to catch the group, and are now appealing to anyone with dashcam footage to come forward as investigations continue.

Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000.
