SALINE COUNTY – Law enforcement authorities in Saline County are investigating a suspect for alleged assault.

Seth Vanbruggen, 21, is accused of pointing a BB gun at another car just before 11:30p.m. on the northbound side of Interstate 135 just south of the Kansas 4 Assaria Road exit, according to Saline County Undersheriff Roger Soldan.

Two vehicles had been driving side by side on the interstate near the rest area in McPherson County.

When the other car passed a truck, Vanbruggen pulled over to the shoulder of the road.

A short time later, Vanbruggen then, passing the other car, allegedly pointed the gun.

The other car with two occupants pulled off at the Assaria exit and called the Sheriff’s Office.

Vanbruggen was arrested on a requested charge of aggravated assault.
