This is a disturbing case of road rage. Larry Drown, who has run unsuccessfully for several political posts including U.S. Senate, was charged with aggravated assault and gross negligence for running over a female construction worker who was flagging traffic. He then reversed his car and ran over the worker again…..allegedly. The woman was seriously injured as one would expect. Police have claimed that Drown acted intentionally. Very hard to imagine what the construction worker could have done to justify that type of response from the man. From the article:

“Police and emergency medical services (EMS) arrived at the scene of the serious accident where former U.S. Senate candidate Larry Drown, had reportedly ran over a flagging female construction worker, and then backed up over her body at the intersection of Water and Wall Streets. Investigating police determined that the incident was in fact a deliberate act.

Larry Drown was accused and was charged with aggravated assault and gross negligent operation resulting in injury. EMS transported the badly injured woman to Central Vermont Hospital located in Berlin to be treated by doctors and nurses. She was placed in critical care. Authorities did not release her name.

Candidate Larry Drown had run for statewide office four different times with no success. He then ran for U.S. Senate (2006), U.S. House (2004), Vermont secretary of state (2000) and Vermont attorney general (2002).”
