OXFORD, Maine (AP) - A Lewiston woman is facing charges for allegedly pointing a loaded handgun at another motorist during what police call a case of road rage.
Oxford police say the confrontation occurred shortly after 3 p.m. Wednesday on Route 121.
Police tell the Sun Journal (https://bit.ly/1h2qHcc ) that two women pulled their vehicles to the side of the road to “have words,” and Sandra Lambert pointed a .38-caliber Ruger pistol at the other driver, whose 5-year-old daughter was in the back seat of her car. Both women called police.
Lambert had a concealed weapons permit.
Police are unclear exactly what touched off the argument, but said it could be a case of tailgating.
The 56-year-old Lambert is charged with criminal threatening with a dangerous weapon. She is free on bail.
