The chainsaw bar was of an illegal length.

From PD report, page 2:
Turned himself in on an active arrest warrant. Original incident was May 6th when Salafia was involved in a dispute with another motorist. At a red light Salafia exited his vehicle and approached the other operator with a chain saw in his hand. Salafia allegedly started the chain saw and was cursing and shouting racial slurs at the other involved operator who was a black male. The black male showed Salafia a hand gun which he was carrying legally in an effort to stop Salafia from advancing on him. Salafia then left the area, but inadvertently cut himself on the chain saw blade leaving blood spatter on the victim’s car. He was later identified and the investigation resulted in his arrest. The other involved party has not been charged in the incident. Salafia posted bond.

I wonder what the backstory is.

Sounds like the kind of Guy that uses Wesson Oil for chain lube.

“He was later identified” - from the blood spatter?
PD had his DNA? There’s a story.
What caused the conflict in the first place? There’s another story.

Exactly. There’s no context whatsoever. People don’t ordinarily pull out a loaded chainsaw on people in traffic. There’s a serious provocation missing from the story.

Awww man...
You really cut me up...

"
The other pulled out a gun, which he was carrying legally, police said" Didn't know this was possible in CT.
To: TigersEye
I've got the same problem.
Should have bought a Stihl.

Not the standard reason to carry one, but not a bad one.

Actually it’s not so bad after I blow the alcohol-bastardized gasoline out of the line after sitting all winter. I was ready to throw it against a tree before I learned that trick.

Salafia left but not before accidentally cutting himself with the chainsaw LOL.
Is this what you call "Karma"?
