A Bridgeport man is accused of pulling out a gun during a road rage incident on Merritt Parkway, state police say.

It happened Thursday afternoon just before 4 p.m. near Exit 52 in Stratford.

Troopers say Steven Moore pulled out a gun during an argument with another driver while they were stuck in traffic.

The victim told police the incident started after both vehicles had been in traffic for nearly 30 minutes and Moore's white Kia cut him off several times.

After troopers contacted Moore, they went to his home, where he admitted to driving to the Kia at the time of the argument.

An investigation revealed there was a loaded gun and magazine inside the Kia.

Moore was charged with threatening with a firearm and breach of peace.
