JUST IN: Two men were arrested after two children were injured in a road rage shooting over the weekend, Nassau County Sheriff Bill Leeper announced.
At a news conference on Monday morning, Nassau County Sheriff Bill Leeper said that the incident occurred around 6 p.m. on U.S. 1 near Callahan.
At some point, according to the Leeper, the driver of the Ram got up alongside the Murano, rolled a window down and began shouting at the driver of the Murano to pull over. A passenger of the Murano then rolled down a window and made an obscene gesture, and the driver of the Murano rolled down his window to shout back at the other driver when a plastic water bottle was thrown from the Ram into the Nissan, according to Leeper.
“Allison stated the reason he fired his weapon was to get out of the whole situation,” Leeper said. “According to the driver of the Dodge Ram, Hale, he heard a loud ‘pow’ but didn’t really think nothing of it until everyone started freaking out in the back seat.” As both drivers continued heading north, Leeper said, they spotted a Nassau County Sheriff’s Office patrol car and stopped. That’s when, according to Leeper, the two drivers got out and started arguing and fighting with each other, and the deputy had to break up the fight.
