RAMONA, Okla. (AP) — A Ramona man's attempt to slow speeders on a country road near his home has him facing felony charges in Washington County.

Thirty-eight-year-old Travis Frederick Price is charged with one felony count of throwing an object at a moving vehicle. Authorities say he threw a 10-foot post through the windshield of a truck on Friday night, injuring two people.

Pryce told Washington County sheriff's deputies that he was tired of drivers speeding down a road near his home and that he was using the 10-foot post as a flag.

The driver of a pickup told authorities he swerved to avoid Pryce Friday night and that as he passed, something smashed his windshield. Two passengers in the truck were injured by the shattered glass.

Sounds like a nutcase. Hes so concerned about safety that he places himself and others in danger.
A padded cell is in order

They were lucky to only be injured by the glass. One of them could have been impaled.
