Police: Rhode Island Man, 24, Threatens I-95 Driver by Displaying What Appeared To Be a Regular Gun
|
A Rhode Island driver displayed what looked like a regular gun to a tow truck driver during a road rage incident on Interstate 95 in Norwalk and Darien on Monday afternoon, state police said. When troopers stopped the driver at Exit 10 in Darien, he became uncooperative, and police handcuffed him, police said. A search of the man’s car turned up a BB gun which state police described as a “black facsimile firearm.” The truck driver told state police that after the man apparently became angry with him, he drove his car in front of the truck and slowed down to 5 mph on the highway. When the truck driver moved into another lane, the other driver, while wearing a mask, pulled up beside the truck cab and pointed what looked like a gun at him.
