A 30-year-old man allegedly fired 13 shots at a Jeep occupied by a woman and her 10-year-old nephew Monday afternoon in Havertown, police said.
The shooting – described by police as a road rage incident – took place on the 2000 block of West Chester Pike shortly before 3:30 p.m. The woman was injured by glass or shrapnel, but she and her nephew were not shot, Haverford Township Police said.
The alleged shooter, Sean Moses, of Drexel Hill, fled the scene but was arrested later Monday, police said.
The woman had been driving in a white Jeep Cherokee on Interstate 476 and saw Moses driving in a dark Lincoln SUV behind her, police said. When she exited the Blue Route near Lawrence Road and West Chester Pike, Moses allegedly pulled up next to her, sideswiped her vehicle and opened fire from his window. Bullets struck the Jeep's windshield, hood and headlight.
The woman and child were taken to Lankenau Medical Center, and police temporarily closed eastbound West Chester Pike.
Radnor police tracked down Moses using license plate tag readers. Upper Darby police stopped Moses in his vehicle at State Road and West Chester Pike in Upper Darby. He allegedly had a firearm on his front seat.
Moses has been charged with attempted homicide, aggravated assault and related charges. Police said there is no threat to the public and that the investigation is ongoing.
