One person is in custody following what police are describing as a bout of road rage in Cambridge.

It happened late Friday morning in the area of Church and Mildred streets, near the Preston core.

Christina Hutchings tells CTV News she and her father were in a van, with her father driving, that nearly collided with a car.

Hutchings, who is six months pregnant, says the two drivers started yelling at each other, and then everyone got out of their vehicles.

At that point, she says, she was punched in the head and kicked in the pelvis while trying to keep her father and the other driver apart.

“I was just totally stunned that a man of his age … could actually hit a woman, especially (with) me being pregnant,” she said in an interview.

Hutching says she was not seriously hurt in the attack.

Waterloo Regional Police say one man was arrested in the area a short time after the incident.

A 56-year-old man is facing charges of assault and uttering threats.
