The accused was charged with dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, possession of a weapon for a purpose dangerous to public peace, and assault with a weapon.
The incident occurred in a Subway restaurant parking lot in Ignace, Ontario, when the accused, a United States resident, became angry after nearly colliding with the complainant's large logging truck.
The accused pursued the complainant in her vehicle multiple times, displayed a Leatherman multi-tool knife, and made threatening statements.
The court found the accused guilty of dangerous driving and possession of a weapon dangerous, but conditionally stayed the assault with a weapon charge under the Kienapple Principle.
