    Barrie police say two men had been driving on Highway 400 on Sunday night when they had passed a burgundy, four-door Chrysler.

    Police say the man followed the two men as they got off the highway and went to their house.
     
    They allege the man then got out of his car, shot bear spray at the two men who were trying to get inside the house before attacking one of them with a stun gun.
     
    Police say the man got back into his car and took off.
