The heavy-duty truck carting salt had accused a commercial urvan bus driver of reckless driving at Boadi Junction and allegedly threatened to harm the trotro driver.
In a road rage, the truck driver pulled a metal bar from his vehicle and attempted assaulting the other driver.
The trailer driver, after being calmed down by passers-by, drove behind the urvan bus at close-range in what eye-witnesses say looked like an intent to cause harm.
Occupants of the urvan bus alleged the truck driver intentionally hit the mini-bus at the rear to avenge the earlier feud.
