Woman Says Man Pulled Gun Over Car Sticker

OKLAHOMA CITY -- An Oklahoma City woman said another motorist threatened her this week because of a political bumper sticker on her car.

Brianna Herz's car has a sticker with an upside down U.S. flag that shows Sept. 11 with a question mark beside it.

Herz told police that she was driving home earlier this week when a man saw the flag and began chasing her in his truck.

The man started grabbing something beneath his seat and Herz said she got scared.

"So I pick up my cell phone and, of course, the battery is run down," she said. "So, I'm acting like I’m calling 911 and pulls a gun over his left arm with the right hand and points it at me."

The man eventually drove away without firing a shot, Herz said.

Herz said she understands that some people might not like the upside down flag, but said she has the right to express her opinion.

Police are searching for a man in his late 40s to early 50s with a graying beard. He was driving a silver 1999 Chevrolet S-10 pickup truck, Herz said.

People with information about the case are asked to call Crime Stoppers at (405) 235-7300.

Somehow I don't think anyone is going to be turning this guy in. He showed amazing restraint.

She's lying. Another liberal America-hater who has trouble separating fact from fiction.

I see nothing wrong with the sticker. I don't even know what it means. An upside down flag is a sign of distress. It could just as easily be pro...whatever. Or anti- whatever.

Her pot belly is worse than mine. Wouldn't be surprised to learn that her report is fake, like many before it seeking publicity.

If he had a few more people he could have corrected it.

Flip the car.

How does she know that the sticker made him mad? Maybe she cut him off in traffic or something.

I saw a bumper sticker on a parked car that said all Republicans need lobotomies. I left a note on the windshield asking if that would make them Democrats.

Same here. Anyone seen this sticker before? Who puts it out?

Somebody has been watching too much TV.

I would like to know what the words say on the window just above her flag. Those words could provide the context for how the flag icon should be interpreted.

Well, if he had decided to shoot, she wouldn't have been easy to miss.
