Suspected road rage incident on I-94 near Ypsilanti without merit, police say
YPSILANTI, MI – An alleged road rage incident involving a passing driver on I-94 and showing off a gun on Wednesday night was ruled unfounded, police said.
Officers were called in to help Michigan State Police investigate the apparent road rage incident which began around 9:40 p.m. Wednesday, November 4 on I-94 and ended in Ypsilanti , according to the Ypsilanti Police Department.
A woman reported to police that she was being aggressively followed on I-94 by another driver who continued to follow her off the freeway towards Ypsilanti, police said.
When the two men reached S. Huron and Spring Streets, the driver behind the woman allegedly raised a gun and fled, police said.
Officers were able to locate the road rage suspect and discovered the driver had an onboard camera that recorded the incident, police said.
Officers viewed the recording and found the video contradicted victim statements about what had happened, police said. The suspect consented to a search of his vehicle where no weapons were found, police said.
No arrests have been made and the case is considered closed for the time being.
