A former Gov. Chris Christie aide accused the governor on Friday of cursing and throwing a water bottle at her while the Bridgegate lane-closing scheme was unfolding, according to court testimony.

Bridget Anne Kelly, a defendant in the Bridgegate trial, said she was discussing a meeting related to a 2013 fire in Seaside Heights — just as the political-payback George Washington Bridge lane-closure scheme was underway — when Christie exploded at her, according to The New York Daily News. "He had a water bottle in his hand and he said, 'What the f--k do you think I am? A f---ing game show host?'" Kelly said, her voice cracking, according to the Daily News.

He hurled the bottle at her, she said in the report, and "I moved out of the way and it hit my arm." It wasn't clear whether the outburst had anything to do with the lane-closure scheme that was happening at the same time. The incident occurred on Sept. 14, 2013, two days after a boardwalk fire, when the governor was expected to be meeting with business leaders. Christie asked his then-deputy chief of staff how the meeting should go, according to The Observer.

Kelly testified that she told him that he should introduce himself and then go around the table for remarks by the business owners, according to The Observer. Christie was unhappy with the suggestion. Testimony from Kelly and others in the ongoing trial has suggested Christie knew all about Bridgegate while the political payback scheme was happening — and he knew why it was being done.

Christie knew that his associates were involved in a plan to shut down lanes leading to the George Washington Bridge, according to testimony, and that the closings were intended to punish the Fort Lee mayor for declining to support his 2013 re-election bid.

The trial involving Kelly, one of two alleged Bridgegate conspirators who were indicted in connection with the scandal, began several weeks ago and it's supposed to last as long as a month. Besides Kelly, the other one who was indicted was the governor's former deputy chief of staff, and Bill Baroni, the top Christie executive appointee at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
