Lorry driver sought for ‘road rage’ attack

Police are appealing for information after a woman was assaulted in an incident of road rage on the A9.

The attack took place at 12.30pm on Tuesday, near Perth, after the driver of a black Kia Sportage pulled into a layby due to a problem with her vehicle.

A red lorry which had been forced to slow down while driving behind her also pulled into the layby, with the driver getting out and approaching her vehicle.

The lorry driver then hurled abuse at the woman before physically assaulting her, leaving her shaken but uninjured.

Police Scotland are now appealing for any information which may help them find the driver.

He is described as being a white male, in his mid-50s with red hair and a freckled complexion, wearing a black polo shirt and black combat trousers.

Officers are especially keen for anyone with dashcam footage to come forward.
