The vehicle struck a fence in this area. The vehicle was then observed to smash through a gate at the end of Rebecca Street in order to access the George Etienne Cartier Parkway. That vehicle then forced another vehicle off the roadway and a collision occurred. The suspect threatened the other driver at that time and then also tried to forcibly remove him from the vehicle. When the driver of the uninvolved vehicle was threatened, he exited his vehicle. The suspect then left the scene in the stolen vehicle.
