• Florida man accused of PIT maneuver in road rage attack targeting family in Stuart (cbs12.com) — A family driving through Stuart near Kanner Highway and I-95 was forced off the road when a driver allegedly used a PIT maneuver, sending their SUV into a barbed-wire fence, according to deputies. No one, including a child and a dog, was hurt, and a 36-year-old suspect is jailed on aggravated battery and child abuse charges. Investigators say the dog in his vehicle had been reported stolen and is now back with its owner.
