Round Rock Man Accused Of Road Rage After Taking Bat To Another Car

ROUND ROCK, TX — In a recent road rage incident, a man is said to have walked up to another vehicle at a red light and smashing its windows with a baseball bat, according to a published report.

The incident happened on Sunday while traffic was stopped for a red light at the intersection of the northbound frontage road of Interstate 35 and East Old Settlers Boulevard in Round Rock, according to an arrest affidavit referenced by the Austin American-Statesman. The exact time of the incident was not listed.

The driver of an SUV said a man later identified as Anthony Hubbard, 37, came up to the vehicle and smashed its windows with a baseball bat. Police later said the front passenger side and rear windshield of the vehicle were smashed, according to the affidavit.

Hubbard left the scene but police later found him parked at a nearby gas station along the 400 block of University Boulevard. Police said he appeared bleeding from fresh cuts to his fingers, according to the report.

Hubbard told police he smashed the window of the SUV because it was possibly involved in a theft, according to the affidavit. But police didn't, charging Hubbard with criminal mischief, a state felony punishable by up to two years behind bars. He was being held at the Williamson County Jail with bail set at $15,000.
