A case of road rage has resulted in a Trenton woman being charged with issuing terroristic threats and possession of an imitation firearm, according to the West Windsor Police Department.

The victim told police that a woman passenger had pointed a handgun at him as the two cars passed each other on Route 1 North. A bottle also had allegedly been thrown at the victim’s car.

The victim followed the suspect’s car on Route 1 north into South Brunswick, where it was stopped by South Brunswick police. It was determined that the woman had allegedly pointed a handgun, which was found to be a realistic-looking imitation handgun, at the victim.

The woman was turned over to West Windsor police by the South Brunswick Police Department. She was released, pending a future date in Mercer County Superior Court.
