STARKE, Fla. – An investigation is being conducted by the Bradford County Sheriff’s Office into a road rage incident in which a passenger was shot.
A case of road rage was reported in Waldo, and deputies arrived to the scene. According to the authorities, there was a disagreement between the people operating a red Toyota and a blue Jeep.
The driver of the red Toyota opened fire on the blue Jeep at some point during the conflict, hitting one person of the blue vehicle with his bullet. The injuries sustained by the occupant were not considered to be life-threatening.
Alachua County has issued a warning to be on the lookout for a red Toyota and the person who fired the gun, Olivia Davis, who is 25 years old.
After seeing the car again in Starke, deputies pulled it over on suspicion of committing a crime.
When the automobile drove into the parking lot of a Holiday Inn, the deputies there discovered that there were two women and five children inside.
The evidence gathered by the investigators at the site was sufficient to support a finding of probable cause that the ladies were connected to the Waldo incident.
Davis was taken into custody on allegations of cruelty toward children that did not include physical injury and shooting a firearm from a moving car.
