Couple Allegedly Engages in Multiple Road Rage Incidents, Including Spitting and Rock Throwing, Police Report

An Arizona couple is facing serious allegations after being accused of embarking on a month-long road rage spree. This disturbing series of events reportedly included spitting on a man in a Walmart parking lot and hurling rocks at his car, despite the presence of the man’s 8-year-old daughter inside.

The duo, identified as Arianna Foster, 20, and Alexander Black, 24, are now confronting numerous charges, such as aggravated assault, criminal damage, and endangerment. According to a probable cause statement accessed by Law&Crime, the troubling incidents commenced on February 19 in Glendale, at a Walmart location. The victim, accompanied by his daughter, was in his vehicle when Black and Foster began to tail them in their 2009 Kia Spectra, which notably lacked both front and back bumpers. Black, who was behind the wheel, reportedly drove so closely that the victim couldn’t see the Kia’s headlights, authorities noted.

In an attempt to understand the situation, the victim pulled into the Walmart parking lot and lowered his window to inquire about Black’s actions. At this point, Foster allegedly spat at the man, hitting him in the face. As the victim dialed 911, Foster reportedly approached his car and hurled a river rock from a mere three feet away, as detailed by the police.

The situation escalated further as the victim tried to leave; Black allegedly pursued him wielding a hammer. The victim managed to escape momentarily but returned to gather information about the suspects’ vehicle. During this attempt, Black allegedly threw a rock, striking the car’s hood and narrowly missing the windshield, inflicting around $2,000 in damages and posing a threat to the lives of both the victim and his daughter, the police statement revealed.

Just four days later, the same individuals were reportedly involved in inciting another road rage episode with a different victim at the same Walmart parking lot. Black, as per the police, began honking and following the car. When they pulled alongside, Foster is accused of throwing a brick at the vehicle, missing initially but succeeding on a second attempt, which resulted in approximately $2,500 in damage. Surveillance footage later confirmed that the same vehicle was implicated in both incidents, according to police findings.

This time, the video captured the license plate number and cops identified the suspects.

The third and final alleged road rage incident occurred on March 18 on southbound Loop 101 near Olive Avenue. A driver was trying to get around the suspect vehicle but Black allegedly sped up, cut the driver off and slammed on his brakes. The victim crashed into the back of Black’s car. Black allegedly kept driving but he eventually pulled over.

The victim reportedly walked up to the Kia and said, “What the hell was that?” Foster allegedly pulled out pepper spray and sprayed the victim in the face. Black took a hatchet and chopped off one of the mirrors and hit the passenger side door, cops wrote. He also stabbed the victim’s front and passenger side tires with a knife, according to the complaint.

Cops noted that the victim was “scared” as the events transpired and “felt like he was going to die.”

Police arrested Black and Foster and took them to the Maricopa County Jail where they remain on a $150,000 bond.
