Road rage attacker cleared of manslaughter

"A Sydney man whose actions led to the death of another motorist has been found not guilty of manslaughter but guilty of a lesser offence.
Benny Sarkis, 60, died in December of last year, after he suffered fatal head injuries during an altercation with another motorist on Glebe Point Road, in Sydney's inner west.
He struck his head on the ground as a result of being punched once by 36-year-old Maka Afu. The two men were arguing after their cars almost collided.

Afu's bail was revoked and he will next be in court for a sentencing hearing in November."
