Livermore police arrested an Oakley man they believe shot someone last month during a case of road rage.
The shooting occurred just before 5 p.m. on March 11 near North Vasco Road and Dalton Avenue.
Officers found the victim with a gunshot wound. He was taken to the hospital and is currently recovering, police said Thursday.
Detectives identified 26-year-old Demarionte Smith as the suspect.
With the assistance of the U.S. Marshals, police arrested Smith on April 1 in Seattle. Police said he’s been charged with attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon.
Investigators believe Smith fled to Seattle to stay with family. He’s currently awaiting extradition back to California.
Anyone with information regarding the shooting can contact the Livermore Police Department’s anonymous tip line at (925) 371-4790.
