FLAGLER COUNTY, Fla. - A Florida woman was taken to jail after pointing a gun at another driver following a fight over parking at Walmart, according to deputies.
Monica Hicks was arrested last Friday on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after the driver called 911 to report the incident, the Flagler Sheriff's Office said in a news release.
The woman said Hicks was in a car attempting to park, but because of traffic in the store's parking lot, both of their vehicles were close to each other.
She honked to alert Hicks of her car's close proximity.

She was taken to the Flagler County jail and was later released after posting $5,000 bond.
