Two people are facing charges after a "high-risk" traffic stop on Highway 401 near Prescott, according to provincial police.
Ontario Provincial Police say reports of a "road rage incident" were called in just after 10 a.m. on Saturday.
One of the occupants in the suspect vehicle reportedly flashed a handgun at the other driver. Officers located and arrested the suspects while still on the highway.
An 18-year-old from Brampton and a 20-year-old from Caledon were charged with possession of an imitation weapon for a dangerous purpose.
Both were later released with a November court date in Brockville.
