State Police: Third person arrested for Colonie road-rage incident

COLONIE — A third person was arrested Friday by State Police investigators in connection with a road rage incident last week.
Christopher Allen, 34, of Lansingburgh, was charged with second-degree criminal mischief, second-degree reckless endangerment and second-degree menacing, troopers said Saturday. He is being held at Albany County Jail on $25,000 bail.
Allen's arrest comes after the arrests of Kristen Wright and Phillip Quandt Jr., who area resident Natia Shim has accused of threatening her and her teenage son, Nace, on May 10. The Shims say that a vehicle loaded with people chased them from Route 7 in Colonie to the Northway northbound, then southbound, finally driving the Shims off the road. Shim said the people leapt from the car and began slamming it with baseball bats and a frying pan screaming racist insults. The Shims are black.
The State Police press release did not indicate when Quandt and Wright were arrested, but both were sent to Albany County jail. An official at the jail confirmed that Wright, 51, was released Thursday morning on $5,000 bail. Meanwhile, Quandt, 50, remained in jail in lieu of $10,000 bail. Both are from Watervliet.
Quandt and Wright were each charged with felony second-degree criminal mischief, along with misdemeanors of reckless endangerment and menacing police said.
