JAMES CITY COUNTY, Va. — A man was arrested after a shooting prompted by an apparent road rage incident on I-64 on Friday, according to Virginia State Police (VSP).
31-year-old Christopher Chappelle, who is from North Chesterfield, will face multiple charges, including malicious wounding, according to VSP.
Around 8:30 a.m., a driver reported that a maroon Dodge van was seen driving aggressively near them on I-64 eastbound. VSP says the van had been making sudden lane changes and had been tailgating the driver. The van then pulled up beside the driver's vehicle around the 232-mile marker and fired multiple shots.
The shooting left a 40-year-old woman — who was the passenger — injured. The 18-year-old male driver was not injured, according to VSP. The woman's current condition was not mentioned by VSP.
Virginia State Police say the maroon Dodge van would later be located five miles away from the scene. Chappelle was then found by James City County police at an "area business."
This incident remains under investigation, according to VSP.
