Driver Bites Woman's Finger Because She Used the Wrong Lane in Pentagon City: Police

A driver flew into a rage and bit the finger of another driver who he thought was using the wrong lane in Pentagon City Wednesday evening, police said.

Police received a call of a fight in progress in the 800 block of S. 15th Street on June 8. Officers found a woman suffering from various injuries, including a bite wound on her index finger, according to an Arlington County Police Department report.

Police tracked down the alleged culprit -- 55-year-old Timothy Dubois of Arlington -- at his home later and charged him with malicious wounding, assault and battery and driving under the influence. He is currently being held without bond.

Police spokesperson Ashley Savage said that the woman had stopped at a stop sign when a man got out of his car, approached her and "told her she was using the wrong lane of travel" before assaulting her.

"The victim opened her door in an attempt to push the suspect off of her and he continued to assault her," Savage said. "The victim was struck in the face multiple times and the suspect bit her finger."
