Pa. man who pointed gun at another motorist with her child in the car held without bail in Baltimore County

A Pennsylvania man is being held without bond at the Baltimore County Detention Center and facing felony charges following an alleged armed road rage incident on I-83 in Baltimore. 

The accused road-rager has been identified as Gary Douglas, 40, of Glen Rock, Pennsylvania. Douglas was arrested on October 9 at Fort Meade in Anne Arundel County.  He has already been charged with two counts of felony assault, use of a firearm during a felony crime, handgun offenses, and other related charges. The individual on the receiving end of Douglas’ road-rage (the complainant) is not being identified.

The female complainant and her 10-year-old child were in the vehicle at the time of the incident. Thankfully, there were no reported injuries.

A preliminary investigation revealed that on October 9, 2024, troopers from the Golden Ring Barrack responded to a report of a road rage incident on Southbound I-83 involving a gray Toyota Corolla.  The driver, later identified as Douglas, reportedly pointed a firearm at a motorist. 

Investigators found the Toyota Corolla later that day on Fort Meade and with the assistance of personnel from the Department of the Army Criminal Investigation Division, the vehicle was searched pursuant to a warrant.  A loaded handgun was seized, and Douglas was taken into custody.  Douglas was later held without bond at the Baltimore County Detention Center. 

The Maryland Department of State Police is committed to enhancing safety in communities across Maryland, including actively addressing all reports of gun violence on our highways. Police urge motorists to prioritize highway safety by avoiding impaired, aggressive and distracted driving.
