Car collision leads to shooting on Brentwood road
BRENTWOOD — A person involved in a two-car collision Saturday responded by shooting the person who drove the other car, police said Monday.
The person who was shot was expected to recover, Brentwood police Lt. Walter O’Grodnick said in an email. That person showed up to a hospital for treatment of the wounds, and the hospital staff contacted police, he said.
The collision and shooting happened about 11 p.m. on Balfour Road between Fairview Avenue and Summerset Drive. O’Grodnick said investigators recovered shell casings from the area.
According to O’Grodnick, the driver who was shot continued to drive after the collision, later telling police he was afraid to pull over. As the vehicle kept going after the collision, the shots were fired, O’Grodnick said.
Police did not identify a suspect and did not have any information on the vehicle the shooter used.
Police asked anyone with information to contact them at 925-809-7911.
