Investigators said it started when the delivery driver refused to deliver a package to Ulrbik’s home, citing certain company protocols and procedures.

Ulbrik became angry, later telling the deputy that the package contained needed medical equipment, according to the report. The man called the victim a “stupid mother (expletive)” and then started to chase the driver in his pickup, records show.

According to the arrest report, Ulbrik denied trying to ram the Amazon vehicle but added that if he wanted to he would have.

Ulbrik faces charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon without intent to kill and reckless driving.
