A Brockton man has been charged with pulling a gun on another motorist in an apparent road-rage incident, police said.

Derek Horner, 34, was charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. He was being held at the Quincy police station Friday night and is due to be arraigned Monday morning in Quincy District Court.



Quincy police Capt. Greg Goyette said the incident was reported at 3:08 p.m. at the intersection of Hancock Street and Furnace Brook Parkway.



“It was some type of road-rage incident where one vehicle cut off another,” Goyette said.



The woman who was driving one of the vehicles alleges the man in the other pointed a gun at her, Goyette said.



Horner’s vehicle was stopped by State Police at the intersection of Independence Avenue and Washington Street in Braintree. Quincy and Braintree police also responded to the scene.



No gun had been recovered as of early Friday evening and the case is under investigation by Quincy police detectives.
