CARTERSVILLE, GA — A man carrying a machete and wearing a mask that made him look "like Jason" is being sought by authorities after he threatened a couple in their car. Josh Woods told WAGA-TV that he and his girlfriend were in their car outside the McDonalds on Cass-White Road when they saw a masked man kicking traffic cones. When Woods asked him why he was doing that, the masked man threw a cone at his car. The man then approached Woods' car, telling him "he was going to chop our heads off." Woods described the man's mask to the Atlanta TV station as "like a hockey mask, like Jason, with fake blood." The masked man fled when he saw Woods holding a pistol, according to Sgt. Jonathan White of the Bartow County Sheriff's Office. Deputies tried to locate him after Woods and his girlfriend called 911, but they were unsuccessful. White said the man is believed to be dangerous. Anyone who sees him is asked to call 911. OTHER NEWS: Kroger Launches Delivery Only Pilot Service In Atlanta
