Overton followed the vehicle, got in front of them, and then stopped in the middle of the roadway, said Webb. The vehicle was forced to stop behind Overton.

Overton began pulling on the victim’s door and then hitting the male victim once he got out to defend himself, said Webb.

Creedon joined in and began assaulting the first victim while Overton began assaulting the other victim.

During the assault Overton brandished a knife, said Webb.

Once Overton and Creedon heard sirens, they fled the scene. However, officers were ultimately able to located the suspects in the Home Depot parking lot. Both suspects were arrested.

One of the victims suffered a laceration to his lip during the assault.

    There is no excuse for actions like this, but if the victim was a more polite driver this incident would never have happened. I not blaming the victim, these two were loose cannons waiting to go off, but by exercising restraint and more common curtesy we all can avoid being in the line of fire of people that need to be in a physiatric ward not loose on the streets.
