A Davenport man is facing charges after Davenport police allege he brandished a handgun during a road rage incident late Wednesday.

According to the arrest affidavit filed by Davenport Police officer Ryan Leabo, officers were dispatched to the area of River Drive and Gaines Street at 11:26 p.m. to investigate a driver of a car who displayed a gun at another vehicle.

Officers were able to locate the vehicle described by the victims.

The driver of the car, Michael Raymond Oldenburg, 24, of 523 W. 13th St., was arrested on charges of assault while displaying a weapon and carrying weapons, both of which are aggravated misdemeanors under Iowa law that carry a prison sentence of up to two years.

He also is charged with possession of marijuana after officers seized 3.2 grams of marijuana from the car's glove box. The charge is a serious misdemeanor that carries a sentence of up to one year in the county jail.

According to the arrest affidavit, there was a verbal altercation between the people in the vehicles. Oldenburg displayed his pistol and pointed it at the other vehicle, stating, ‘How about this.’

Oldenburg had a valid permit to carry that dated from Aug. 4, 2015 through Aug. 4, 2020.
