From WFFA-FOX in Dallas:

Richardson police may upgrade charges against a driver accused of road rage.

Kimberly Al-Homsi allegedly threatened a man with a hand grenade yesterday.

She then led police on a chase from North Dallas to Garland. It turns out that the grenade was not live, but she could be charged with making a terror threat.

Police say the hand grenade wasn’t the only alarming object police said they found in Al-Homsi’s car. They also confiscated additional ammunition that could have been used to create an explosive.

“As officers approached the car...they saw what appeared to be a couple of hand grenades inside the car,” said Sgt. Kevin Perlich, Richardson Police Department.

Officers backed off when they discovered the explosive and called the Garland bomb squad, who pulled out three hand grenades.

Police checked the grenades and said they were real but did not have explosive material in them so they were not actively explosive, but they did find other ammunition inside the car.

“It is very serious,” said Officer Joe Harn, Garland Police Department.

Police said the incident started as road rage between Kimberly Al Homsi, 41, and a male driver.

“She pulls out what appears to be a hand grenade, pulls the pin and starts making threatening motions like she is going to throw it at him,” Harn said.

The male driver called Richardson police and they found Al-Homsi coming out of the parking lot of the Brighter Horizon’s Academy in Garland where she had just picked up her teenage daughter. Police investigated to see if Al-Homsi made any threats while at the school.

“From what we could tell right now, there were no other threats made to anyone else other than the motorist which she had the altercation with,” Perlich said. “So, no sign she was a harm or threat to anybody.”

Police said they have not discovered why she had the items in her car

The authorities should round this nasty pig up and send her to a third world dump. The police should be doing everything they can to get the beastly douche-bag off the streets.

Send in the ATF, they can destroy her house, kill her cats and actually do some good busting a muslim with a fake grenade.
