NEWPORT CITY, Vt. (AP) - Police say a 17-year-old Derby, Vt., youth, driving his father's car, repeatedly rammed and cut off another driver in a dispute about money.
Trevan Roberge pleaded not guilty Tuesday in Orleans District Court to disorderly conduct, unlawful mischief and careless or negligent operation. A judge released him on condition that he not contact or harass Spencer Lucas.
Police say Roberge repeatedly cut off, rear-ended and sideswiped Lucas' car on the road between Derby and Newport City on May 20, preventing Lucas from getting out of his vehicle at the Newport City police station, The Caledonian-Record reported. Lucas' car suffered over $3,700 in damage.
Roberge told police he had snapped in a conflict with Lucas about $150.
