I turn the mic over to you MetaMan ...
"Mukker, a US citizen and father of two, was on his way to a grocery store and was repeatedly cut off by a driver. He pulled over to the side of the road to let him pass but the driver instead pulled in front of his car and aggressively approached Mukker’s vehicle, according to information by the Sikh Coalition, a community-based organisation said."

If that doesn't sound like a typical road rage incident I don't know what is. I guarantee you a large percentage of the population has directed some kind of cuss word, slur or anything else at another driver.

Newspapers of all sorts will try to make a story out of anything. And who at this time doesn't love a good race story?

You really think people are out searching for people who "look like Bin Laden" and yet attack a Sikh? Sounds like some idiot lost his cool and the media spun it as usual.
