SOUTH NYACK – A man is being sought by police after what is described as a bicycle rage incident.

What got the man's really tight shorts in a twist is not known, but he is said to have banged on the hood of a car, then reached inside a window and grabbed a passenger with both hands while the car and bike were still moving.

"It was a physical and verbal altercation," South Nyack-Grand View Police Chief Brent Newbury. "This is unacceptable behavior by a bicyclist."

The run-in occurred about noon at Clinton Avenue and South Broadway. The cyclist is described as a white man, about 6 feet tall with brown hair and a thin build. He was last seen heading south on South Broadway wearing bright green bicycle shorts with white stripes down the thighs, and no helmet.

Police ask that anyone who witnessed the incident or has information call 845-358-0206.
