A Figure 8 race at Anderson Speedway in Indiana on Saturday ended with two drivers being led away in handcuffs.

The drivers, Shawn Cullen and Jeffrey Swinford, collided with each other three times during the race, according to Stuart Hirsch of the Herald Bulletin. After the third collision, Swinford drove his car over the hood of Cullen's vehicle, who then jumped out and started throwing punches at Swinford as the track's security team looked on.

An Anderson police officer eventually stepped in, using a Taser gun on Cullen before arresting both men.

Swinford was charged with Class A misdemeanor criminal recklessness and has been banned from Anderson Speedway. Cullen was cited for disorderly conduct.
