7/8/14 - A father and son from Hamburg Township who police say chased and assaulted another man in a road rage incident have been arraigned. 52-year-old Daniel Marcum was arraigned on aggravated assault charges on Monday and is scheduled for a pretrial hearing on July 21st. His son, 28-year-old Nathan Marcum, was arraigned a week earlier for aggravated assault and reckless driving, and his pretrial hearing will take place on Monday. The charges stem from an incident that began in the vicinity of westbound Grand River and Latson Road. Witnesses reported seeing a pick-up truck traveling at high speeds, weaving in and out of traffic prior to the incident. Livingston County Sheriff Bob Bezotte says the victim, a 56-year-old Howell man who was driving a black Buick, tried to get away and ran a red light before pulling into the parking lot of a business near Grand Oaks Drive. He says the Marcums cut across Grand River, exited their vehicle, and proceeded to assault the victim. They fled a short time later after being advised that police were coming. Bezotte says witnesses were able to get a license plate number along with descriptions of the suspects and their vehicle, which led police to the Marcums. (TD)
