The driver – later identified as Simon – exited the vehicle and walked to the victim's driver's side window and made several statements about the crash.
The defendant then returned to his vehicle stating, "I’ll air this [expletive] out." The defendant then produced a semi-automatic handgun and fired several shots. One of the shots penetrated the front windshield striking the column separating the front and rear passenger compartments.
The victim's 11-year-old son was in the front passenger seat when this occurred.
