AUSTIN, Texas -- Cellphone video purportedly shows two drivers using a baseball bat and a rod during a fight in the middle traffic in Austin, Texas.

Twitter user Noel Deric posted the video, allegedly shot on Monday, which shows one man walking up to a Chevrolet pickup truck and wielding a bat.

The fight happened at the Slaughter Lane and I-35 intersection, according to ABC affiliate KVUE in Austin.

The second driver then gets out of the vehicle and grabs a rod from the back of his truck.

Both men are seen swinging their weapons at each other. The fight seems to subside as the person shooting video drives away.

Austin police were still looking for the driver with the bat and said they're investigating the situation as a case of aggravated assault, according to KVUE.
