A man is facing battery charges after allegedly throwing a rock at a car whose driver then got involved in a collision, Davis police reported.
Lt. Art Camacho said the incident occurred shortly before 6 p.m. Sunday in the 2700 block of Lillard Drive in South Davis, where a woman reported that a “aggressive” man walking down the middle of the street hurled a large rock at her car.
Frightened by the approaching man, the woman backed up her car but struck another vehicle behind her, causing a person in that car to hit their head, Camacho said.
The man left the scene but was spotted by officers about a half-hour later in the Oakshade Town Center parking lot and taken into custody, Camacho said. Zachary Dwayne Register, 29, was booked into the Yolo County Jail on suspicion of misdemeanor battery.
