"An angry New Zealand farmer scooped up a terrified woman driver into his tractor's loader bucket before dumping her on the road after she crashed into his fence.

Carl Randall Martin, 51, from Wairamarama, near Auckland, drove the tractor at her six times, knocked off her hat and then pinning her up against her crashed car before scooping her up in the bucket and tipping her on the gravel road, the New Zealand Herald reported.

The incident on August 5 was outlined in the Manukau District Court on Thursday after Martin had been convicted of assault with a weapon.

He will be sentenced on January 16."
