In St. Petersburg, authorities are seeking an elderly man who became embroiled in a dispute over a travel order and brandished a katana during the confrontation. The incident, reported by the Telegram channel Mash, has drawn urgent attention from local law enforcement as they investigate the sequence of actions and identify the suspect.
According to authorities, the confrontation unfolded on Composers Street when the elderly man, a military retiree, attempted to depart in his car. A silver Volkswagen Passat allegedly blocked his exit, triggering a heated exchange after his offer to leave the scene peacefully was rejected by the other driver. Witnesses indicate the retiree pulled a katana from his vehicle and struck the opponent’s car door with the blade, the force of which came perilously close to injuring the other driver.
Video footage circulating online shows the man unsheathing a firearm from the backseat, then directing insults toward the other driver as the confrontation intensified. The clip has become central to police inquiries, and investigators are working to verify every detail while locating the suspect who remains at large.
Meanwhile, the victim promptly reported the incident to the authorities, who now lead the search for the attacker. The case underscores rising concerns about road rage and weapon intimidation during disputes that escalate behind the wheel, prompting discussions about public safety and accountability for those who wield weapons in moments of conflict.
Earlier reports from Surgut noted a separate case involving a former head of the local traffic police. That individual had gained notoriety for his stance against window tints while driving a notably colorful vehicle, illustrating how public figures in traffic enforcement can attract media attention under contrasting circumstances and how perceptions of authority interact with vehicle behavior on the road.
