Road rage is a problem for people of all ages, but come on! Don’t pepper spray an 89-year-old woman. A fight between a Ford F-150 and a Subaru SUV ended in a painful disaster and police officers want your help finding one of the drivers

89-year-old woman takes pepper spray to the face in her Ford F-150

First of all, an 89-year-old driving a massive Ford F-150 truck feels a little intense. But hey, if she’s still got it, that’s good for her. 

However, she was involved in a road rage incident that led to her getting pepper sprayed in her truck. The incident occurred in Strasburg, Pennsylvania, about 65 miles west of Philadelphia. 

The 89-year-old woman was attempting to pass a white Subaru SUV with her truck, which apparently caused a problem. According to Centre Daily, both drivers pulled into a parking lot for a confrontation in the 400 block of Georgetown Road. 

Then the Subaru driver blessed the 89-year-old with pepper spray in her truck. The SUV driver then quickly fled the scene, heading north on Georgetown Road, near Paradise Lane. 

Local staff at the nearby Micheal’s Homestyle Breads store shared that the woman came into the store for help after the incident.

They took her outside and kept flushing her eyes out. They figured out that she must have been hit with pepper spray. She calmed down as the burning began to ease, but it took a while. She was in a great deal of pain. 

Anyone with related information to the incident is encouraged to call Pennsylvania State Trooper Auerbeck at the PSP Lancaster Station at 717-299-7650. 

There is an ongoing investigation into the incident. The cause of the road rage is currently unclear. Also, the victim’s condition is unknown. 

I’d like to ask the Subaru driver why they felt the need to attack an elderly woman. I’m not sure how old the attacker was, but it probably wasn’t a fair fight.
