Fairfield Police are on the look out for a guy who has a serious case of road rage.
Investigators say he has terrorized two mothers over the summer; both had their special needs' children with them at the time.

"I was afraid he was going to come burn my house down," said one of the mother who didn't want to share her name. She says she's still terrified after this incident that started in the middle of Congress Street.

"He was in front of me and he kept slamming on his brakes stopping and I stopped and it was almost as if he was going to ask me for directions," she said, adding that it became evident to her that he wasn't lost.

This is all going on while her 7 year old special needs son was in the backseat.  "He was shaking his fists at me and screaming horrendous obscenities at me, calling me names and I drove around." Several cars followed suit, she said, but he wasn't done. "He actually ran through a red light  to come after me, made an illegal left turn to pull up next to me to once more scream obscenities at me."

She eventually turned left onto the Merritt Parkway while he turned right onto Congress. She called the obscenities beyond horrendous.

As for her son, "He was terrified. Any child special needs or not understands when somebody is threatening you and calling you names and he said 'mommy why is that man screaming at you.'"

Now Fairfield Police say this man was screaming at another mother with a special needs child in early July. All the while she was buckling her daughter onto a school bus on Merwins Lane near Redding Road

"So he literally went up to the bus driver and up to the mother and started yelling at them," said Lieutenant James Perez of Fairfield Police.

Perez say the driver yelled, "You better be here five minutes earlier tomorrow of this is going to be a problem." It just so happens that both mothers came in Tuesday to report the incidents; both described the same man.  "Listen we all have bad days but it is unacceptable," Perez added.

The mother along with other Fairfield neighbors now hope police track him down.  "Because I never want to run into this man again. I just don't. he scares me."

Police don't have his name but are asking for the public's help in finding this black Mercedes. Investigators also believe he's a commuter who likely heads to the train station in the morning.

If you have any information, call Fairfield Police.
