OKLAHOMA CITY -- An Oklahoma judge was arrested in Austin, Texas, last week after authorities say he opened fire on parked vehicles while out driving, striking at least one of them, and intentionally crashed into a woman's vehicle, telling officers later that she had cut him off.

Brian Lovell, an associate district judge in Garfield County, Oklahoma, was arrested Sept. 11 on a misdemeanor count of reckless driving. A felony count of engaging in deadly conduct with a firearm was forwarded to a grand jury for consideration.

Lovell was released on $10,000 bond and ordered to undergo a mental health evaluation.

“We have zero comment,” said a woman who answered a phone call Friday to a number listed as Lovell's. The woman identified herself as Lovell's wife but declined to give her name.

Lovell didn't immediately reply to a phone message left at another number listed as his, and he declined to comment to a KFOR-TV reporter who went to his home in Waukomis, about 60 miles (97 kilometers) northwest of Oklahoma City.

An Oklahoma judge was arrested in Texas for firing a gun at several cars during a road rage incident and slamming his SUV into the back of a woman's car multiple times. Brian Noel Lovett was released from jail after posting a $10,000 bond. This is what a thug looks like.

2. Attempted murder

3. He tried to kill a woman by pushing her into traffic, but he's let out on $10k bond?!

Sounds about white.

4. Letting folks out on bond for crimes

That should keep them in jail happens all the time. It shouldn’t.

12. This wasn't just some petty crime. He tried to kill a woman, and fired shots in traffic.

Yes, people get out on small bonds for shoplifting or bar fights, but this was a potentially deadly attack. It was thanks to sheer luck that nobody was killed, and only $10k bond?! They guy is clearly dangerous to be out and about.

5. He shot a gun at cars?

How could he be so careless? So callous and thoughtless?

Guns are for shooting at PEOPLE!

(Just in case anyone didn’t get it…)

9. Guns are for killing, and Jesus doesn't like that. I've heard.

Probably why he's not connecting with certain MAGA elements. No going woke for sure.

6. Oh, so now it's illegal to drive around?

And it's illegal to squeeze off a few rounds at parked cars? Probably all that wokeness in Austin. At least, that's how it will be reported on Fox.

11. FQX will say the cars enticed the Judge

by wearing short tight mini-skirts, or they flipped him off which provoked him, he's the victim.

7. "We have zero comment,"

She knows…

“We have zero comment,” said a woman who answered a phone call Friday …The woman identified herself as Lovell's wife but declined to give her name.

8. Too bad his victim wasn't a 2nd Amendment enthusiast

10. Yeah, think of all the paperwork that could have been saved.

If the car owners had only stood their ground, there would have been no further need to go through the whole bail procedure.
