Johannesburg - Two men were arrested on Thursday after assaulting a 50-year-old motorist in Boksburg in what police believe was a road rage incident.

Ekurhuleni metro police spokesperson Kobeli Mokheseng said the two men were arrested on the R21 near the Griffiths Road bridge.

He said the two men, aged 35 and 29 respectively, had been driving a white Audi A4.

They are alleged to have forced their victim, who was driving a Mazda Etude, to stop and pull over.

He said: "When the two alighted from their vehicle they kicked his car before he was dragged out of his vehicle and assaulted. Patrolling Metro police officers noticed the assault and came to his rescue."

The two men have been taken into custody at the Boksburg North police station and were expected to appear in court shortly. He said they face charges of assault with the intent to do grievous bodily harm.

The man was rushed to Glenwood Hospital for his injuries.
