A Nashville man was reportedly the victim of road rage on Thursday because of an Obama-Biden sticker on his car, the local WKRN TV reports.

According to the report, Mark Duren said Harry Weisiger saw the bumper sticker on Duren’s vehicle, flipped him off and honked his horn.

“He pointed at the back of my car,” Duren said, “the bumper, flipped me off, one finger salute.”

But it didn’t end there.

Duren told News 2 that Weisiger continued honking his horn, following him and bumping into his car. Duren hit the brakes, and Weisiger’s SUV smashed into his car. And then, according to Duren, Weisiger started pushing the car using his SUV.

He pushed my car up towards the sidewalk, almost onto the sidewalk.

The local report said Weisiger has been charged with felony reckless endangerment.
