"I don't know if he knew who we were, I don't know," they said, via the New York Post. "I think it was very weird that this car came right in front of us, parked diagonally, trapped us, we can't go anywhere, and then just started beating the car. I don't get it."
The couple shared a video of the incident on their Instagram pages.
"This man just blocked the intersection of our car at Melrose and Vine and then kicked our door in, attacking us. Police were called, and the license plate is on the video. If you know who this is, call the police immediately," the caption read. "...He is dangerous, and the police are looking for him!"
The footage shows the angry driver punching the driver-side window and kicking the driver-side door. He then walks back to his car before shouting obscenities at the couple. Rather than getting out to confront the angry man, Pol and Patrick followed the driver while dialing 911.
Pol Atteu and Patrik Simpson Admit 'Gown And Out In Beverley Hills' Was Born by Accident
Pol and Patrik have become increasingly popular for their show, Gown and Out in Beverly Hills. Interestingly, the couple previously admitted that the show was born by sheer accident.
"Gown and Out in Beverly Hills came about by accident, actually," Patrick told Digital Journal in 2021. "...We would have all these amazing people come into the boutique for gown fittings, and we get to learn so much about them and the history and their knowledge and wisdom of the industry. I picked up my iPhone and started filming these fittings, and we started with a YouTube show of episode clips between 3-5 minutes long."
As the YouTube channel grew in popularity, the couple decided to turn their five-minute ideos into a 22-minute TV Show. That's when Amazon Prime Video came into play.
"Now we are 2 seasons and working on season 3. Our show streams on Amazon Prime Video USA, UK, Germany, and Japan. We recently launched on additional streaming platforms Tubi, Roku, Vudu, and Pluto."
Fans will be looking forward to the next installments of the show. But for now, the hope is that Pol and Patrik don't encounter any more angry drivers, especially ones who get physical with their vehicle.
