SALISBURY — A Salisbury man was charged with reckless driving and other offenses after two police officers witnessed him driving erratically in the Walmart parking lot. According to a department report, the officers witnessed an incident of road rage.

Salisbury police charged Scott Alan Turner Jr., 26, of the 4300 block of Fish Pond Road, with felony possession of a schedule II substance, careless and reckless driving and a failure to appear warrant for careless and reckless driving.

The incident occurred on Thursday around 7 p.m. when the officers were at Walmart responding to a shoplifting call and saw a driver in a Chevrolet Camaro driving fast through the parking lot.

The report said the driver was “charging” after a truck and police stopped him. The officers saw cigar papers on the dash and searched the vehicle. They found one hydrocodone pill, said Police spokesman Lt. Lee Walker.
