MOORHEAD - A 19-year-old motorist is accused of pointing a replica handgun at another motorist during a road rage incident Saturday, Dec. 10, in south Moorhead.
Near Eighth Street and 37th Avenue South, a driver honked at another driver whose passenger then pointed a handgun at passengers in the other vehicle, Moorhead police said in a news release.
