Passenger Charged in Midtown Road Rage Shooting

A shocking road rage incident in Midtown has turned deadly: 29-year-old Detavious Alexander, a passenger in a car, allegedly opened fire on a driver after a tense encounter involving a blue Jeep Wrangler. The Jeep driver reportedly yelled, drove into a bike lane, and sped away — only to be seen tailing the victim before stopping in an intersection. Alexander exited the vehicle and fired shots, hitting the victim’s rear bumper. A 9mm shell casing was found, and surveillance footage supports the victim’s account. The Jeep’s distinctive hood markings helped police track it down; the driver later identified Alexander as the shooter. He now faces serious charges including attempted solicitation of murder and firearm use in a felony — with court scheduled for Wednesday.
