Flagler couple pull gun during road rage fit
A Palm Coast couple was arrested after they were accused of pulling out a gun and baton, threatening another driver at a stoplight.
PALM COAST, Fla. - A Palm Coast couple was arrested after they allegedly brandished a baton, pointed a gun at a driver, and smashed a car window during a road rage incident, deputies said.
On June 11, a person called deputies reporting that a woman brandished a baton and a man smashed his side window just before 5:35 p.m. on Palm Coast Parkway Northeast.
The victim said he was in his work van traveling westbound on the Hammock Dunes Toll Bridge when the incident happened. His coworker was also behind him in another work van when the man and woman threatened to kill the victim while riding on a motorcycle, deputies said.
The victim allegedly told the couple at a stoplight, "If you guys ride like that, you're going to get yourself killed," arrest records show. The woman produced a baton and said "We're not going to die, you're going to (expletive) die"!
When the light turned green, the man on the motorcycle pointed a black handgun at the driver before putting it away and driving off, deputies said.
