An Augusta man said he had chewing tobacco thrown in his face after he blew his horn at a driver on Wrightsboro Road Thursday night.

The 51-year-old victim said he honked at a woman who was blocking the intersection of Wrightsboro Road and Marks Church Road so that she would move and turn, a Richmond County Sheriff's report said.

When he did, a different driver, described as a white male about 35 years old with a brown mustache, started yelling.

The man then removed some chewing tobacco from his mouth and threw it at the victim, hitting him in the face. The man was last seen driving away, the report said.
