An angry pickup truck driver repeatedly rammed a car at a Halifax-area gas station, apparently believing the car's driver had deliberately blocked him in, RCMP say.
The incident happened Thursday around noon at a Wilson's gas station in Lower Sackville.
The RCMP said a woman was filling up her car when a man in a pickup truck with a plow attached started yelling at her, accusing her of trapping him in. He then rammed her vehicle three to five times before driving away.
Investigators were looking for a dark truck with a red plow, with "The Boss" written on it. The man was described as white, in his late 40s, with a medium build.
Anyone with information is asked to call Halifax District RCMP or Crime Stoppers.
