A case of road rage led to several people being assaulted in Beaumont this afternoon.
Beaumont Police Officer Veronica Payton says that incident began when man driving on Dowlen Road, near Parkdale Mall, cut off another man just before 2:30.
The two men began yelling and gesturing at each other, causing them to wreck in front of the Super Walmart.
The two men then got out of their vehicles and began fist fighting.
Officer Payton says a man, a woman and the woman's mother pulled up and tried break up the fight.
All five continued to argue, until the situation escalated and one of the men pulled out a hand gun.
The woman then took off a boot she was wearing and swung it at the man with the gun, only to hit her own mother.
Officer Payton says the gunman then hit the woman with the boot in head with his gun, causing her partner to pull out a pocket knife.
That's when the officers arrived.
The two women went to the hospital to be checked out and all five people agreed to go to the Beaumont police station for questioning.
Officer Payton says detectives are questioning all five and at this point no charges have been filed against anybody. The man with the gun did have a license to carry a concealed firearm.
Sure glad he didn't take my class.
Of course he would have known he couldn't do that.
