Titled:   Man charged in road rage incident

A 36-year-old Lansing man has been charged in an incident that ended with a gun being pulled outside a Burger King.

Two drivers heading north Monday on Cedar Street got into an argument, according to the Ingham County Sheriff's Office. The Lansing man struck the other vehicle with his own. Both men then stopped and got out of their cars. The Lansing man approached the other driver with a baseball bat. That man - who has a valid concealed weapon permit - pulled out a gun and ordered the man to drop the bat. The driver with the bat was arraigned on two counts of felonious assault, authorities said.

A CPL holder uses a gun to stop and diffuse a violent incident without injury to either party. And the police seem to have understood the situation and arrested the aggressor. And the local press has covered it.

Maybe there is hope after all.
