A Baltimore man was arrested for two separate armed road rage incidents in the county and for assaulting officers trying to take him into custody, according to the Maryland State Police.

He is accused of flashing a gun at several people in another car on Feb. 4 on the Baltimore Beltway near Perring Parkway. On July 7, troopers say Talbert flashed a gun on I-695 near Wilkens Avenue.
Investigators allege that he assaulted two state troopers when he was arrested on Monday. A loaded gun was found in his car.
In June, a Baltimore County man was arrested for gun and drug charges following an alleged road-rage incident on I-695.
Maryland State Police said that on June 4, they received an emergency call from a motorist who said another driver pointed a silver firearm at them and their passenger during a road-rage interaction on the outer loop of I-695 near I-95.
Travis Thomas, 26, faces numerous charges after police said he was found with guns and suspected cocaine.
Thomas was found by police at his job in Harford County. Officers executed search warrants at his job and his home.
In the search, police found a loaded gun and suspected cocaine packaged for distribution. Troopers found two more guns, along with more suspected cocaine, at his home in Dundalk.
