Brentwood police have arrested a man following a road rage incident, which escalated into confrontation and shooting on Monday morning.

Police were called around 9 a.m. to the 200 block of Fruitwood Common to investigate an altercation in which one person discharged his gun. The two men had been involved in a road rage incident, and had both exited their cars when one man produced a gun, shooting once but narrowly missing the 46-year-old the victim, Brentwood police spokesman Lt. Walter O’Grodnick said.

The assailant immediately fled the scene in his vehicle at a high rate of speed. Officers located the man within minutes at Brentwood Boulevard and Applewood Court. They later identified him as 55-year-old Victor Cordova of Brentwood, and after searching the area, recovered the gun, O’Grodnick said.

Cordova was arrested without incident, transported and booked into Martinez Detention Facility on attempted murder charges, along with various firearm related charges, according to police.

O’Grodnick said the shooting was an isolated incident and there is no further threat to public safety.

Anyone who may have witnessed the incident is asked to call Brentwood police at 925-809-7911.
