Police are investigating after a road rage incident in Tremont left a woman stranded on her way to picking up a family member from hospital.
Investigators have been told a woman was travelling in a Kia hatchback along Devils Elbow on Mount Dandenong Tourist Road shortly before 2.30pm yesterday afternoon.
It is understood a male cyclist unhappy with her driving stopped near the car, reached inside the driver’s side window and took the keys from the ignition.
He threw them down an embankment and into bushland, leaving the driver stranded as she was unable to find the keys.
The driver, who was on her way to collect her mother from hospital, was unable to find the keys.
Police arrived and eventually managed to locate the keys.
The cyclist was wearing orange, red and yellow Lycra.
Investigators are appealing for anyone who witnessed the incident or may have information regarding the cyclist’s identity to come forward.
Anyone with any information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au

Maybe the woman did do something to pee off the cyclist, but some of the lycra lunatics up this way need to pull their heads in too. Sometimes they should stick to bike tracks and be off the road where the cars drive.

Sometimes the Police are not available and civilians take action to protect themselves or others as well.
Like I said we Don't know ALL the facts here so lynching the bike rider out of hand is a bit premature.
