The victim told deputies that Marshall changed lanes multiple times and was preventing her from passing as they were traveling southbound on U.S. 1 near Mile Marker 93.

She said Marshall, who was in a red Mazda sedan, displayed a firearm, putting her in fear for her life, officials said.

When the Mazda was stopped a short time later, Marshall confessed to deputies to displaying a 9mm Ruger handgun, officials said.

Marshall was booked into jail and the gun was placed in evidence, officials said.
