Man Allegedly Breaks Into House During Central New York Road Rage, Have You Seen Him?

A road rage incident in Central New York ended up inside one individual's home! 

Spend even a short amount of time driving on New York roads and another driver is bound to do something that annoys you. Most people can keep their feelings in check but sometimes it feels good to yell at them from inside your car. Others get so enraged there is an actual confrontation but I have never heard of a case of road rage winding up inside the home of one of the participants!

On the evening of Sunday January 11th New York State Troopers responded to a reported burglary on Sleepy Hollow Road in the city of Rome. By the way, the definition of burglary is "entry into a building illegally with intent to commit a crime, especially theft."

Troopers soon discovered that a road rage incident began earlier. As one of the individuals returned home, the other followed him. The homeowner entered his residence and locked the door. The individual who followed allegedly forcefully entered the home, threatened the homeowner, and chased him outside.

The homeowner contacted 911, and the individual left the scene in a black SUV with dark tinted windows. The individual is described as a white male, middle-aged, wearing a black jacket and blue jeans, with short hair and a stubble-style beard.
