A central Otago man has been arrested after allegedly presenting a shotgun at a motorist during a "road rage" incident.
The 47-year-old man will appear in the Alexandra District Court tomorrow to face a charge of presenting a firearm.
Sergeant Mike Williams said there was "an altercation - a road rage incident" between a quadbike rider and a motorist, on State Highway 8, between Alexandra and Roxburgh on Saturday.
The motorist alleged the quadbike rider presented a shotgun at him, through the window of the vehicle.
Sgt Williams said the motorist was "shaken" by the incident.
Because of the nature of the incident, several firearms owned by the quadbike rider had been seized by police.
