ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) - The Bernalillo County Sheriff's Sergeant, charged with pulling a gun in a road rage incident, has been ordered to surrender all of his weapons.

Witnesses said Alfonso Rodriguez put a gun to the neck of a 20 year old that was double parked outside of Horizon Academy West Tuesday.

Rodriguez says he used his wallet, not a gun.

He also says the other driver came at him with a pipe.

Rodriguez' lawyer asked the judge to drop the aggravated assault charge that did not happen.

Rodriguez is free on bail.

The sheriff's department has put him on desk duty.
