One man is in serious condition after a road rage incident in Seattle on Thursday morning.

Two drivers pulled over on Rainier Avenue after engaging each other from their cars, according to the Seattle Police Department.

The two got into a brief confrontation outside their vehicles. One driver returned to his car, but the other followed him and began pounding on the windshield. That’s when the man in the car drove away.

As he was leaving, the other man’s leg got caught “in his wheel,” according to police. The man was knocked to the ground. He was later transported to Harborview Medical Center with severe injuries.

The other driver was arrested for vehicular assault.
