A pregnant woman’s vehicle — and herself — were covered in spaghetti when a road rage incident took a messy turn, according to Indiana authorities and news reports.

The victim of the April 17 incident in Indianapolis said she was driving her children in her Infinti when she was nearly struck by the 42-year-old driver of a GMC SUV, according to WXIN.

The GMC driver later claimed the other driver brake-checked her, and the pregnant woman drove around her, WTHR reported, citing court documents. Then, the GMC driver reportedly flashed a gun and began to follow the other vehicle.

Police said the Infinti driver stopped at an intersection and the GMC driver sideswiped her vehicle, according to WIBC. The same driver is then accused of tossing a container of spaghetti onto the pregnant woman’s car.

The pregnant woman and the vehicle were both found covered in spaghetti when officers arrived, WTHR reported, citing court documents.

The GMC driver said it was the Infinti driver who had struck her, but officers only arrested the one woman, according to the news outlets.

Court documents show the 42-year-old woman was charged with intimidation and pointing a firearm at another person. She was jailed on a $3,000 bond.
