NORTH WILDWOOD, N.J. - A Pennsylvania man turned himself in after police say he strangled a woman during a road rage incident in Wildwood earlier this month.
Authorities say on Aug. 20, 49-year-old Christopher Krier was driving erratically and tailgating another vehicle near the area of 13th and New Jersey avenues.
The victim, according to police, rolled down her window and commented on Krier's dangerous driving and mentioned there being children in the area.
Police say both Krier and the victim pulled over and a Krier attacked the victim, strangling her, which caused a bystander to step in.
