A 53-year-old man was fighting for his life Thursday morning after being involved in what looks like an episode of extreme road rage in Laval.
The event took place shortly before 8 a.m. on the service road of Highway 15 North, near boulevard du Souvenir.
Two cars would have had a collision first. Subsequently, one of the drivers allegedly got out of his car and was deliberately hit by the other motorist, who fled after the impact.
The victim was rushed to hospital for treatment of very serious injuries. Doctors fear for his life.
A portion of the Highway 15 service road was completely closed to northbound traffic for part of the day.
Laval police investigators were to go to the scene to try to understand the sequence of events.
The suspect in this case has not yet been located.
