A elderly couple from Chichester have been left shaken after a road rage attack.
A man driving a black Mercedes stopped, threatened the couple, shouting and swearing at them.

The driver started flashing his headlights and trying to overtake, then was seen swerving between the lanes on the M275 in Portsmouth causing other drive
rs to get out of the way.

The couple, a 64-year-old man and his 63-year-old wife, carried on with their journey in their grey Mercedes but were overtaken by the man as they approached the Rudmore roundabout in Portsmouth.

He pulled sharply in front of them making them stop. He then got out of his car shouting and swearing, and demanded the man in the grey car get out.

When the couple stayed inside their car the man punched its windscreen twice while shouting, before he drove off.

PC Nicholas Hughes said: "This was a particularly frightening experience for the couple in the grey Mercedes, who were both left shaken.

"I would appeal to anyone who saw the black car on Friday, (Aug 15th) to contact police."

A man aged 48, of no fixed address, has been arrested in connection with the incident, and remains in custody.
