Road rage gun part of arsenal, deputies say A Dade City man was arrested Wednesday after authorities say he pointed a gun at another man during a traffic dispute. The Hernando County Sheriff's Office charged Mark Anthony Cramer, 56, with aggravated assault and possession of a firearm by a felon after investigators discovered a 9mm Ruger pistol in the back seat of his Ford F250 pickup. Authorities say Cramer was eastbound on State Road 50 about noon when he got into an altercation with the driver of a blue Lexus sedan. After pulling alongside the Lexus, Cramer pointed a gun at the driver. A search by detectives also yielded several other firearms in Cramer's possession, including a .45-caliber Ruger pistol, a 12-gauge Mossberg shotgun and a Rossi .243 hunting rifle. He is being held in the Hernando County Jail on $17,000 bail.
