Two men are looking for help from Waterloo Regional Police Service (WRPS) after they were reportedly victims of a road rage incident in Kitchener.

The pair claimed on Monday, around 10:45 p.m., another driver was driving dangerously near WRHN @ Queen’s Blvd (formerly St. Mary’s General Hospital).

That driver reportedly damaged another vehicle in the Spadina Road East and Queen’s Boulevard area, uttered racial slurs, and assaulted one of the men.

Police are looking to speak with anyone who might have information on the alleged incident.

The investigation is ongoing.
