Two Texas mothers who were dropping off their children were involved in a heated argument that resulted in one woman pointing a gun at the other.

It was witnessed by the women's children, who were still in their cars at the time, and others in line.

One of the unidentified mothers was upset at the other for her driving ability, according to witness Jeanette Renteria.
'(The mom) got out of her car banged on the windows, said "You’re speeding in a school zone, you almost ran me over once you need to start doing better," and, you know, so one mom’s yelling at one mom, and the mom in the car pulls out a gun and says, "Back off",' Renteria told KTRK.
Afterward, the mothers dropped off their children and left the campus.
The gun was not fired and no one was injured.
Police were called to the scene but no arrests were made.
Charges were not filed because the woman with the gun said she was afraid and thought she was being attacked, The Houston Chronicle reported.
Still, the incident was scary enough that Deer Park Elementary School Principal Lisa McLaughlin sent a letter home to parents Thursday, calling the incident dangerous and inappropriate.
