PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. — A man was arrested after several shots were fired at a car during a road-rage incident in Port St. Lucie on Sunday, police said.
It happened at about 7:30 p.m. near the intersection of Southeast Crosstown Parkway and Southeast Sandia Drive.
When officers arrived at the scene, they spoke to two victims, a man who was the driver of a Honda Accord and his female passenger.
The victims alleged that the driver of another vehicle fired several rounds at them while they were in their car.
Police said the victims' Honda Accord sustained "several gunshots." However, neither victim was injured by the gunfire.
Officers temporarily shut down Southeast Crosstown Parkway to search the roadway for evidence.
Investigators said the suspect, Ali Sami Zaiter, 39, originally fled the scene.
Detectives were able to identify Zaiter's gray Ford F-150 pickup truck as the suspect vehicle.
Port St. Lucie SWAT and detectives arrested Zaiter Wednesday evening after it was determined he was the sole occupant, driver and shooter during the incident.
Zaiter faces two counts of discharging a firearm in a public place, two counts of shooting into an occupied vehicle, two counts of attempted felony murder and tampering with evidence.
Police said detectives are still working to recover evidence in the case.
Anyone who may have witnessed the incident or has video of what happened is urged to contact Detective Dennis Harrigan at (772) 871-5001 or Treasure Coast Crimestoppers at (800) 273-8477.
