She aimed the gun at a 50-year-old woman and her 72-year-old mother, according to the Clearwater Police Department.

CLEARWATER – An 18-year-old woman was arrested Monday (March 26) after a road rage incident in which she is accused of pointing a gun at a 50-year-old woman and her 72-year-old mother, the Clearwater Police Department said.

Tia Joan Pisani, 18, of Clearwater, was charged with one count each of of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, aggravated assault with a motor vehicle, battery on a person 65 or older, leaving the scene of a crash involving property damage, and tampering with physical evidence.

The incident began about 11 a.m. when Pisani became involved in a road rage case on Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard near Belcher Road. Police said the dispute from the roadway spilled over into a nearby parking lot, where the verbal dispute turned violent.

Pisani attacked a 72-year-old woman and her 50-year-old daughter. Police said Pisani pointed a gun at the younger woman and pulled the trigger. The weapon turned out to be an unloaded airsoft gun. Both women suffered minor injuries in the altercation before Pisani fled the scene.

The police department’s Crime Analysis Unit was able to take a wrong tag that had been provided and through an extensive search track down the right tag and identify the owner. Detectives were able to locate and arrest Pisani later Monday.
