AUBURN HILLS, MI - A 36-year-old Lake Orion man was arrested after he allegedly pointed a gun twice at another motorist on Interstate 75 Tuesday in what police described as an incident of road rage.

The other driver reportedly cut the man off in traffic at Baldwin and I-75 in Auburn Hills, prompting him to pull “the weapon on the driver two times,” Auburn Hills Police Lt. Jill McDonnell told WJBK-TV.

The victim, a 47-year-old Westland man, called 911 and gave police updates from the road before police pulled over the driver, McDonnell said.

“Fingers were flying and people were yelling back and forth,” McDonnell said, adding that motorists “need to pack their patience.”

“It’s a busy time of year,” she said.
