Authorities are looking for a man who, in a fit of road rage, pulled a gun on another driver last weekend.

The two encountered each other about 10:30 p.m. April 23 on Route 22 eastbound near Route 33, Palmer Township police said in a news release Friday.

The man confronted the victim in the Walgreens parking lot at William Penn Highway and 25th Street, showing a black semi-automatic 9 mm pistol, police said.

The man is described as between 5 feet 10 inches and 6 feet 1 inch tall, with dreadlocks just below his shoulders, a stocky build and wearing a cut-off crew-neck-style sweatshirt.

He was driving a cream-colored 2-door Fiat 500, possibly with a thin red stripe the length of the vehicle below the windows. There was a passenger in the car, police said.

Anyone with information on the vehicle or suspect is asked to contact Palmer Township Detective Sgt. Timothy G. Ruoff at 610-253-3556 ext.1211 or truoff@palmerpd.org.
