SOLON, Ohio - Solon police have identified the North Ridgeville man accused of fatally shooting a woman after their two vehicles crashed at a busy intersection.

Matthew Ryan Desha, 29, of North Ridgeville, is charged with murder in the death of Deborah Pearl, police said.

He will appear Monday in Bedford Municipal Court.

Pearl, 53, of Twinsburg, died Saturday after Desha shot her with a 5.56-millimeter rifle, police said.

Officers arrested Desha at the scene without incident.

Pearl left home Saturday morning to head to work at South East Harley Davidson in Bedford Heights, her son told cleveland.com.

Desha ran a red light just after 7:20 a.m. on Solon Road and hit Pearl's Ford Taurus at the intersection of Richmond Road. The impact pushed Pearl's car several feet east onto Solon Road. Desha's Jeep flipped several times and landed on its roof about 50 feet from Pearl's car, police said.

Witnesses said Desha exited his car with a rifle. One witnesses told cleveland.com that Pearl had her hands in the air when Desha shot her several times.

Officers found Pearl lying in the roadway. She died after paramedics took her to University Hospitals Bedford Medical Center, the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner's Office said.

Investigators have not released a motive for the shooting.
