Man Accused of Assault With a Live Power Line
Wednesday, Aug 31, 2011  |  Updated 7:17 PM EDT

A D.C. lawyer is facing assault charges after he allegedly threatened another man with live power wires.

While danger from Mother Nature’s fury was blowing away from the region Sunday, police said a man-made act of road rage took place in Silver Spring, Md.

A College Park man was accused of attacking a motorist with a live power line knocked down by Hurricane Irene.  According to authorities, on Sunday a 32-year-old Richard Bialczak tailed a man with his car and then got out and attacked him.

Derek Edwards, 28, was driving home from work when Bialczak's car came up closely behind him.  Edwards said he tried to get away from Bialczak, but the suspect matched him turn for turn, until they reached a downed power line, still charged with electricity, which had been blown into the road by the poweful storm.

Police said Edwards got out of his vehicle to warn Bialczak in the car behind him of the danger.  When he did, authorities allege the College Park man got out of his car and threatened the victim, who quickly retreated back into his car.  Bialczak was heavily intoxicated, according to investigators.

Bialczak will probably defend himself...

It was a brownout, he was still able to walk. Blackout/brownout, both RACIST.
