An Encino woman was arrested after she allegedly brandished a gun at a person during a Valencia road rage incident last week.
Around 12 p.m. Wednesday, deputies received reports of a road rage incident near Valencia Boulevard and Auto Center Drive, said Deputy Natalie Arriaga, spokesperson for the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station.
“It was reported the victim was threatened by a white male adult and white female adult armed with a firearm, last seen driving southbound on Valencia Boulevard in a white Mercedes Benz C-300,” Arriaga said.
Deputies searched the area and located a vehicle matching the suspect description on the 25800 block of McBean Parkway near Granary Square.
The two suspects were detained, according to Arriaga.
“During investigation, deputies learned during a verbal confrontation between the victim and male driver of the opposing vehicle, the female passenger brandished a firearm,” Arriaga said.
During a search of the vehicle, deputies located a pistol and ammunition.
Katrina Stibolt, 30, from Encino, was arrested for brandishing a firearm toward a vehicle occupant, Arriaga added.
Stibolt was booked into the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station and later released on bond.
