Charlestown man charged with using realistic-looking toy gun in Medford road-rage incident

State Police report arresting Gary Pimentel, 20, of Charlestown, on charges he reacted to some sort of traffic conflict on an I-93 ramp by pointing a realistic-looking toy gun at another driver around 4:30 p.m. yesterday.

State Police say the woman he allegedly pointed the toy at called Medford Police and then followed him as he drove through Medford, where he was stopped and arrested by a Medford officer - who they say found him with a toy gun with its orange tip painted black.

Pimentel is scheduled for arraignment Thursday in Somerville District Court on charges of assault with a dangerous weapon and disorderly conduct.

Innocent, etc.
