Road Rage Shooting Leaves Woman Hurt In Lincoln, Woodland Man Arrested
LINCOLN (CBS13) — A Woodland man has been arrested on suspicion of shooting a woman in an apparent road rage incident in Lincoln.
The Placer County Sheriff's Office says, back on July 8, deputies found a woman standing next to her car along Athens Avenue with a gunshot wound to her leg. She had been in an apparent road rage incident with another driver, deputies learned.
Deputies say the suspect shot at the woman's car and she was hit in the leg. She was able to get a picture of the suspect's car as it sped away, however.
The next day, Woodland police pulled over the suspect along Interstate 5 near Pioneer Street. He has since been identified as Andre Lepe, a 22-year-old Woodland resident.
Lepe was found with a loaded Glock 27 in his car. About 90 bullets were also found throughout the vehicle, deputies say.
After he was positively identified as the Lincoln shooting suspect, Lepe was arrested and is now facing charges of discharging a firearm from a motor vehicle and assault with a firearm.
