Los Angeles doctor guilty of slamming brakes on, injuring two
A driver has been found guilty of injuring two cyclists in a road rage
attack. Jurors in Los Angeles decided that Dr Christopher Thomas
Thompson, 60, deliberately slammed on his car's brakes moments after
overtaking the pair.
Thompson was convicted of six felonies, including assault with a deadly
weapon, and one misdemeanour. He was remanded to custody pending
sentencing.
The injury incident happened on Mandeville Canyon Road in Los Angeles
County, on 4 July 2008. Two other cyclists testified that a driver
matching Thompson's description performed the same action in previous
incidents on the same road, but both were able to avoid crashing into
the car.
Ron Peterson and Christian Stoehr were not so fortunate, and according
to testimony, Thompson, after a verbal altercation, passed the pair then
suddenly stopped.
The riders did not have enough space to stop or swerve. One rode into
the rear windscreen of the car, breaking his nose and front teeth and
requiring stitches. The other crashed into the kerb and injured his
shoulder.
Police testified that Thompson, a former emergency room physician,
admitted purposely trying to crash the riders in order to "teach them a
lesson".
