Elderly driver intimidated by young motorist

AN 81-YEAR-OLD man was left shaken after a fellow driver followed him along the road, forced him to stop his car and threw the keys on the road.

Just before 2pm on Sunday afternoon an the elderly man was driving from Hilltown to Rathfriland at a speed of around 30mph when a blue car journeyed behind him for some time flashing their headlights.

The blue car passed and pulled in front of the motorist before stopping. A young male got out of the blue car, approached the driver’s door of the other vehicle, took the keys out of the ignition and dropped them on the ground before getting back in the blue car and driving off.
