OAKLAND — A 38-year-old man was wounded in a road rage related shooting Wednesday night in the Fruitvale district and the gunman remained at large Friday, authorities said.
The shooting happened just before 8 p.m. Wednesday in the 3400 block of East 9th Street.
The 38-year-old man was driving eastbound in a Honda sedan and a man in a Tesla was driving westbound.
Police said because of the narrowness of the street, the two vehicles stopped head-on. A dispute began over who was going to pass first, with both drivers flashing their lights and honking horns.
The Tesla driver got out of his vehicle and fired several shots at the man in the Honda, hitting him in the arm, police said.
