Intimidating behaviour- what do you do?

Not directly linked to just London but it happened here today

I was walking back to Paddington when I could hear a man shouting and slamming things. As I continued to walk down the street I could see he was coming up the street, kicking everything in sight and shouting his head off. He looked absolutely crazy with anger. I tried to cross the road but the pavement opposite was closed for road works. I ended up walking into the road anyway and a bit further up to get onto the pavement. As I did this I could see him watching and shouting. I didn’t know what to do so I walked to a group of people and sort of tagged onto them but then I could see him crossing the road! I then started to walk really quickly down the road in the opposite way- my legs were like jelly and I felt panicked.

what do you do when you see someone acting crazy when you’re out and about? You obviously don’t want to walk past them but sometimes if you do a u-turn etc it’s obvious and can annoy them more.

I feel like I’m seeing so much more odd behaviour nowadays when I’m out

I'd cross and go into a shop/pub/restaurant. Or failing that, pull out my phone and pretend to check it and do a u turn like I'd gone the wrong way.
