Watch Former NHL Star Sean Avery Bust a Man’s Car Mirror in Heated Dispute

Every day there’s something going on that raises an eyebrow or two. Today’s wtf incident comes courtesy of former NHL player Sean Avery. Apparently Avery had some beef with a guy in his neighborhood. The beef began a few months back, when Avery and the man from his neighborhood had an issue on the road. Avery wasn’t a happy guy when he was blocked in, and went off at the man. Now fast forward to the most recent incident, where Avery spotted the guy driving, and began messing with him.

Via TMZ:

Former NHL star Sean Avery busted a man’s car mirror during a heated altercation in L.A. Thursday morning … but he tells TMZ Sports he’s the real victim in the situation.

Here’s the deal … law enforcement tells us cops were called out to the 8300 block of the Yucca Trail near West Hollywood around 10 AM to respond to a call of vandalism.

What happened preceding the call, though seems to boil down to two sides.

On one end, there’s Niku. On the other, there’s Avery … and both guys claim the other dude was the aggressor in the incident.

Niku says a couple weeks ago, back in mid-February, he got into a confrontation with Avery in the neighborhood after unintentionally blocking the former hockey player down a two-way, one-lane road.

Niku says when he backed up to let Avery by … the 40-year-old ex-NY Ranger became aggressive, rolled down his window and yelled “slow down you fat f***” over and over.

Niku says he hadn’t had any contact with Avery since … until Thursday morning, when he drove by the NHL player, who was on a jog.

Niku claims Avery recognized him from their February incident, and became incensed, and chased after him.

In video of the incident, you can see what happened next … Avery caught up to Niku and opened his door — before Niku quickly pulled it shut.

Niku then rolled down his window and called Avery a “psychopath.”

Avery then stood in front of Niku’s car … until Niku drove slowly towards him while honking his horn.

Avery eventually got out of the way, but elbowed the dude’s driver’s side mirror as he stepped aside.

You can see the video below:

Sean Avery looks pretty menacing running around his neighborhood. Not sure he’s the kind of guy you want to be in a feud with.

Luckily for the driver, he didn’t put his hockey skills to use.
