The Camp Pendleton Marine Sergeant (Sgt) who captured our attention after we discovered a video of him in a road-rage incident swearing and threatening a driver and his disabled female passenger, a former Marine herself, on Tuesday, has been detained and cited for communicating a threat.

According to an ABC 10News report that contacted the Public Affairs Office at Camp Pendleton after viewing the video shot by the vehicle’s passengers, the Sgt is a Purple Heart recipient, which is an award given to military personnel wounded in combat, but his identity will not be released until he is formally charged.

An officer at Camp Pendleton released this statement on the matter: “This individual’s behavior does not meet the standards that are expected of our Marines and it has received the attention of senior base staff.”

The news station also learned that the man driving the car is the wounded Marine’s brother and caregiver. Their names have not been released. According to the report, the video was published online by a friend of the paralyzed woman who is being identified only as “Lisa”.

“To go into such a fit – unprovoked – it’s pretty scary,” Lisa told reporters. “He cut them off and apparently he kept brake-checking them. He would slam on his brakes abruptly. They hit into the back of him on the third time,” she said.

“I really hope that his command can watch that and someone can get him the help that he needs. Anyone who acts like that unprovoked is a danger to the public,” Lisa added.

In case you missed the (NSFW) video of the road rage incident, you can watch it below the break.
