A man was left with a broken nose following an alleged road rage incident involving two BMW drivers in Gloucester at the end of August. Gloucestershire Police have appealed for witnesses and dashcam footage to assist with their investigation.
The incident occurred at approximately 9pm on Sunday, 30 August, on Hempsted Lane near the junction with Saint Ann Way and Hobbs Way. It reportedly began with a minor collision between a light-coloured BMW and a silver BMW 3 Series saloon.
After the collision, the driver of the light-coloured BMW is said to have exited his vehicle and approached the driver of the silver BMW, who had also stepped out. The first driver then allegedly headbutted the other man in the face before returning to his car and driving away.
