Man facing felony charges after a hit and run road rage incident in Garden Grove

Dietrich Lee Arthur Hudson, a 43-year-old man, has been arrested and charged after a road rage incident and hit-and-run in Garden Grove.

Hudson is facing seven felony counts of assault with a deadly weapon and two misdemeanor counts of hit-and-run with property damage.

Hudson pleaded not guilty and he was scheduled for a pretrial hearing on July 25.

Hudson allegedly crashed into the rear of another car a few times in a road-rage incident at about 2:30 p.m. on Monday at Euclid Street and Garden Grove Boulevard, according to the police.

The other vehicle had seven people in it.

Hudson was also accused of an unrelated hit-and-run accident a short time before the alleged road rage incident, according to the police.

The police did not divulge Hudson’s city of residence however court records show that he was involved in a divorce case back in 2018, in San Bernardino.
