Man fired four rounds into car during road rage shooting, North Miami police say
A North Miami man was arrested Monday morning after police say he forced a car into oncoming traffic, then fired several bullets into that vehicle during a road-rage incident.
North Miami police say Alex Felizor, 39, was driving on Northeast 125th Street and 10th Avenue around 11:30 a.m. when he forced the other driver into the oncoming lane.
When the other driver tried to come back into the correct lane, Felizor fired several rounds from his semiautomatic handgun toward the man’s vehicle, according to a North Miami police arrest report.
Felizor then crashed his vehicle, according to the report, which did not say what he crashed into. The report also did not mention what types of vehicles each man drove.
Felizor was carrying the gun in his front right pocket when police found him, according to the report. There was a spent .380 bullet casing on the front seat of his car, police say, as well as a bullet hole through his windshield.
Police found three bullet holes in the passenger side of the other car, as well as a bullet ricochet indentation on the car’s rear wheel panel, according to the report. The victim, whom authorities did not name, was not hit, police say.
The .380 pistol had a 10-round magazine, and police say Felizor had one round racked in the chamber.
As of Tuesday, Felizor was being held on a $15,000 bond at Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on a charge of firing a deadly missile. According to the arrest report, he invoked his right to remain silent when police asked him about the incident. Information about his legal counsel was not immediately available.
