On 8 Jul 08 Lauren Rummer, age 18, 135 Vanfossen
Road, Lowell, reported she was traveling northbound on Cats
Creek Road when the driver of a two door Buick accelerated
up from behind her vehicle. The driver, whom she recognized
as Rebecca Sergent, age 18, 1320 Caywood Road, Marietta, pulled
up next to her and swerved her vehicle in attempt to force
her off the road. Ms. Sergent then swerved and braked abruptly,
forcing Ms. Rummer to skid to a stop. At that point Ms. Sergent
exited her vehicle and began banging on the driver’s
side window of Ms. Rummer’s car and shouting obscenities.
Ms. Rummer escaped without harm and phoned for help from her
residence. Even though Ms. Sergent asserted she was not in
the vicinity of the incident, Deputy Sheriff Staats located
skid marks on the roadway consistent with Ms. Rummer’s
statement. In consequence, Deputy Staats requested a summons
for Ms. Sergent for aggravated menacing.
