TOWN OF MENASHA, WI (WTAQ) – Police in the Town of Menasha say a road rage incident Tuesday let to a street fight.
Authorities were called just before 5 p.m. to the intersection of Racine Road and Twelfth Street.
Several vehicles were pulled over to the side of the road and people were standing in the street. Investigators spoke with witnesses who said the incident began a couple of miles away at Valley Road near Appleton Road.
That’s where a car driven by a 57-year-old Menasha man pulled out from a parking lot in front of a car driven by a 19-year-old Appleton woman.
As cars drove westbound on Valley Road and south on Racine Road, the 57-year-old man and a 24-year-old Menasha man who was a passenger in the other car began giving each other the middle finger. The 57-year-old man then stopped at Racine and Twelfth. Both men got out of their cars and started punching each other.
Police gave each man a ticket for disorderly conduct. They arrested the 24-year-old man on a probation violation.
Both men declined medical attention.
