A Brainerd man held a machete out his car window at people in another vehicle during a road rage confrontation in Crow Wing County, according to charges.

Ethyn Jeremy Anderson, 23, faces a charge of second-degree assault with a dangerous weapon.

According to the criminal complaint, deputies were dispatched at about 9:27 a.m. on September 21 to County Road 3 and Severson Drive in Merrifield for a report of a road rage incident with someone brandishing a machete. The complainant told law enforcement he was teaching a family member how to drive a stick shift when the male driver of a silver Honda behind them began honking and appeared upset after they stopped at a roundabout to let another vehicle go.
