Police: Dad Driving Girls To School Exchanged Road Rage Gunfire

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- Two men, including one who was driving his two girls to school, were arrested on Wednesday morning after they exchanged gunfire in a road rage incident, according to Orange County sheriff's deputies.
Louis A. Davis, 40, and Victor Vilchez, 44, were charged with aggravated burglary with a vehicle following the incident that began on Egan Drive near Goldenrod Road and ended near Chickasaw Elementary School.
Davis, who was driving his 11-year-old and 6-year-old girls to school in his Honda, cut off a van driven by Vilchez, Orange County sheriff's deputies said.
Vilchez then rear-ended the Honda, and shots were fired from both vehicles, deputies said.
Davis told Local 6 News that he shot at the van in self-defense.
"I wasn't trying to harm at all," Davis said. "As you can look at the van, it probably has bullet holes in it because I was trying to shoot his tires."
Davis dropped his girls off at home and began chasing Vilchez, deputies said.
"I saw a man running, just shooting, shooting, shooting out in the open," said Brenda Thompson, whose car was T-boned by Vilchez while he was fleeing Davis.
No one was injured in the incident.
An investigation into the shooting is ongoing, and more charges may be filed against Davis and Vilchez.
