Suspects Arrested in Mansfield for Road Rage Incident Allowed to go Free on Bail

Two Rhode Island men arrested in Mansfield after a road rage incident on Route 95 in Sharon are free on bail, but the victim in the case says he fears for his life.

Driver Yomar Romero, 21, of Pawtucket, and passenger Justin Smith, 20, of Providence, are expected to post $2,000 cash bail according to the Sun Chronicle. Assistant District Attorney Melissa Tafe requested $10,000, adding that the victim said he was extremely fearful for his life.

Last week, the two were arrested after allegedly cutting the victim off, showing him the middle finger, and pointing a gun at him. When police stopped the vehicle, they found, a loaded .32 caliber Colt handgun was located, along with a box containing 28 rounds of ammunition and a Halloween mask. Neither man had a valid license to carry a firearm and both were arrested and transported to the State Police Barracks in Foxborough.

Both men were ordered to have no contact with the alleged victim. Smith will be placed on a curfew and must report to the probation department while the case is pending.
