Police have charged a Brooklyn man in connection with a road rage incident that left another man hospitalized.
They said William Festo rammed his Lexus into a Ford Fusion driven by 23-year-old Caleb Applewhaite of Jackson Friday afternoon on the Garden State Parkway in Tinton Falls.
Applewhaite's car went off the shoulder and hit a tree.

Festo was being held on $25,000 bail. He faces charges including driving under the influence, aggravated assault by auto and making terroristic threats.
Applewhaite was taken to Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune with a bruised lung.
