Police arrested a 45-year-old Long Beach man Thursday night after he allegedly pointed a gun at another motorist in what the victim called a case of road rage.
Long Beach patrol officers were called to the intersection of 10th Street and Walnut Avenue at about 7:30 p.m. after the victim, a 23-year-old Long Beach woman, called to report a man with a gun, said Officer Jackie Bezart, a Long Beach Police Department spokeswoman.
The victim told officers the suspect, identified as Medgar Joseph Roy, pulled out a gun and pointed it at her as she sat in her car.
What triggered the road rage incident was not known Friday, Bezart said.
The victim was not hurt, she added.
Officers arrested the 45-year-old suspect and he was booked into the Long Beach City Jail on a charge of assault with a deadly weapon, Bezart said.
He was being held in lieu of $50,000 bail Friday and is scheduled for arraignment at the Long Beach Superior Court Monday afternoon, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department's Inmate Information Center.
