Boggan charged in road rage incident with shots fired
A Brewton man was jailed on $100,000 bond for allegedly trying to run a woman off the road on Interstate 65 and firing shots into her vehicle.
Robert Boggan, 44, 306 Stallworth St., was charged with shooting into an occupied vehicle and reckless endangerment.
According to information released by Escambia County (Ala.) Sheriff Heath Jackson, on Oct. 11 deputies were notified of a possible road rage incident that took place on the interstate inside Escambia County.
The victim told deputies she was traveling down I-65 when a taxi cab pulled up beside her and motioned for her to roll down her window. After rolling down the window, the victim said the suspect (later identified as Boggan) told her that she ran over a tire on the interstate and that it busted his windshield.
Jackson said after the victim refused to pull over she said Boggan attempted to run her off the road and attempted to get in front of her and block her path.
The victim also said while Boggan was beside her vehicle she heard the sound of something hitting the side of her car.
After arriving at a safe location, the victim found bullet holes in the side of her vehicle.
Deputies made contact with Boggan and after conducting an interview he was arrested.
A condition on his $100,000 bond is that Boggan is instructed to stay away from the victim if he's released from the Escambia County Detention Center.
