The man allegedly assaults a police officer during the incident.
A report of road rage turned ugly Saturday afternoon when the alleged perpetrator refused to cooperate with police.
The male driver, who was stopped on Manhattan Beach Boulevard a few blocks away from Sepulveda Boulevard around 2:15 p.m. Saturday, was "non-compliant" when police contacted him, said Lt. Christian Eichenlaub of the Manhattan Beach Police Department.
The man's actions escalated, and he was ultimately arrested for assaulting a police officer and resisting arrest, Eichenlaub said.
