Authorities in Canada have launched an investigation into a road rage incident after a video from the scene showed one of the women involved using a small dog as a weapon.
The incident occurred in Dartmouth, Halifax on July 1st.
“The altercation started after two females in one vehicle confronted two females in the second vehicle regarding being cut off in a drive-thru,” Halifax police said.
Video from the scene shows one of the women yelling at the others from outside of the vehicle window before she and the passenger start exchanges blows.
At some point during the incident, one of the women is seen dragging the other passenger’s dog towards her own vehicle. The dog’s owner then pursues the woman and that’s when the woman swings the dog by the leash into the owner’s head. The owner manages to grab the dog and both women head back to their vehicles.

Authorities at the scene reported that neither of the women wanted to press charges against each other, however, they have since taken matters into their own hands due to public outcry on the situation.
