A Columbia man is facing possible charges after a road rage incident Saturday.

Columbia police arrested DeAngelo Butler, 23, near Hanover Boulevard and Riney Lane just before 5:00 p.m.

Butler reportedly got into a fight with a woman so she left the home and Butler followed her in his car, Columbia police said Sunday.

Butler hit the woman’s car which had five children inside, according to police. Witnesses told officer Butler got out of his car with a knife or mini machete and started beating on the woman’s car windows.

But officers did not find a weapon at the scene, police said.

Butler was arrested on suspicion of armed criminal action, unlawful use of a weapon, assault, endangering the welfare of a child and domestic assault.

Butler remained in the Boone County Jail Sunday night.
