CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A suspected drunken driver fired several gunshots at a car that pursued him after a hit-and-run crash, police said.

Steven Halloran, 22, of Brunswick is charged with felonious assault and is currently lodged in the city jail on $75,000 bond.

The crash happened about 11 p.m. Friday on West 137th Street near West Avenue.

Halloran was southbound on West 137th when his 2001 Jeep Cherokee veered into the on-coming lanes and sideswiped a car with four people inside, police reports say.

The second car stopped to make sure everyone was okay while Halloran kept driving, according to police. The other car turned around and followed Halloran, police said.

Halloran stuck a handgun out the window and fired two gunshots at the car following him, police reports say. The bullets did not hit anything, police said.

The driver kept following Halloran and briefly blocked his car in a driveway in the 13700 block of Clifford Avenue, police reports say.

Halloran, however, got out his car with the gun still in his hand, police said. The driver drove several houses away and waited for police. The driver also told police that he saw Halloran hand the gun to a neighbor, police reports say.

Officers found Halloran sitting on the front porch of the home, police reports say. He told police that he had a gun in his Jeep and that he had had a few drinks of vodka at a relative's home before he drove home, according to police reports.

Investigators searched his car and found a pill jar filled with marijuana and a bullet. The officers found a loaded gun in the backyard of the home near a fence, according to police reports.

Halloran was then arrested and booked into the jail.
