Pickup driver Zach Waring, 18, told cops said the incident began when he accused the Toyota driver, Adalberto Aponte, of driving recklessly and nearly causing accidents. As he sat in his pickup at a stoplight, Aponte got out of his car, walked up to him and started pummeling him through the window.
