Man arrested after driver shot in road rage incident on Maryland's Baltimore-Washington Parkway
A Prince George's County man was arrested in connection with a road rage shooting that left a man injured in Anne Arundel County Wednesday, according to state police.
Darius Bryant, 21, was arrested in Washington, D.C., and charged with attempted murder shortly after the shooting on the Baltimore-Washington Parkway (I-295) around 7:30 a.m.
Police said a man was driving a white Dodge van when he was shot from the driver's side while on the B-W Parkway in Anne Arundel County. A passenger was also in the car at the time.
The man drove himself to a nearby medical center and was taken to a local trauma center for treatment, officials said. He was able to provide police with a description of the suspect's vehicle and dashcam video.
The suspect's vehicle was found by U.S. Park Police around 8:40 a.m. in D.C., and the driver was identified as Bryant.
Police found a leaded firearm during a search of the vehicle. A dispensed shell casing was also found at the scene of the shooting, according to officials.
Bryant is being processed in D.C. and will be extradited to Maryland, police said.
The incident prompted substantial police activity and shut down northbound lanes of I-295 at MD-175 in Anne Arundel County, officials said around 10:20 a.m. Lanes have since been reopened.
