Strange early morning encounter with an aggressive driver — should I be worried?

I had a really uncomfortable situation early this morning and I’m trying to understand if I handled it right.

I was outside my building around 5:40 AM, standing near my parked car and talking with a colleague before heading out. A car passed by and I briefly looked in its direction, nothing more. About 2 minutes later, the same car came back, reversed near me, and the driver started asking me aggressively why I was looking at him.

I explained I wasn’t looking at him specifically and even apologized just to calm things down, but he stayed angry. He then took a photo of my car and said something like “I will show you,” which honestly felt threatening.

I didn’t escalate the situation and just left it there, but it left me feeling uneasy about what might happen next.

After thinking about it, I also submitted a negative phenomena report through the local police website as a precaution, just to document the incident in case anything escalates later. I don’t have his details, only the time and what happened.

Im honestly worried. Should i do something else as a precaution.
