1400 block of Descanso Drive in La Cañada Flintridge, a man reported that after turning out of a parking lot in the area, he noticed that another vehicle had followed him out and was driving closely behind his vehicle. Believing the other driver wanted to get around him, the man pulled his car toward the left side of the roadway to allow the vehicle to pass. As that vehicle drove along side the man’s car, the passenger threw an orange object at the man’s car which struck the driver’s door. The man decided he would follow the suspect’s vehicle and take a photo using his cellphone. The suspect’s vehicle drove toward Verdugo Boulevard and the Glendale (2) freeway. The man drove his car alongside the suspect’s vehicle. The suspect turned, smiled and held up his two fingers in a “peace” sign. The man took the picture then heard the sound of glass shattering. He stopped his vehicle as the suspect fled. He then noticed a broken bottle on the ground near the rear driver’s side door and a dent in that door apparently caused by the bottle. The man reported the incident, the deputy investigated and the identity of the suspect is thought to be an employee of a local cafe. The incident occurred at 11 a.m.
