Troopers arrested a Pikesville man Wednesday in connection with a road rage incident in which a man allegedly pointed a gun at another driver.
Maryland State Police said troopers were called around 6:20 p.m. for a report of a road rage incident on Pulaski Highway in the area of Long Bar Harbor Road in the Abingdon area.
State police said a white Honda CR-V stopped in one of the lanes of Pulaski Highway. Police said another driver honked his horn at the stopped vehicle before getting out to check on the Honda driver.
Police said the victim looked in the Honda and the driver pointed a handgun at the victim and fled.
Police said troopers found the Honda and stopped it on southbound Interstate 95 south of the Maryland Route 24 exit. Police said when the driver opened his door and got out, troopers saw a pistol magazine in the door pocket.
Police said the driver, identified as Ronald McKnight II, 29 told troopers there was a pistol in the vehicle.
Troopers arrested McKnight and charged him with first- and second-degree assault and weapons violations.
