A Jefferson County man is in custody following a road rage incident in Elizabethtown.
Kevin Felix of Louisville was charged with three counts of first degree Wanton Endangerment and one count of Possession of a Handgun by a Convicted Felon following his arrest Saturday.
According to the Elizabethtown Police Department, on October 4 at around 2:41 a.m. officers were dispatched to East Dixie Avenue between Steel Drive and Public Square in response to a report of shots fired involving a black car occupied by three adult victims. The victims told officers that a white vehicle, later found to have been operated by Felix, pulled out in front of them, causing them to brake abruptly. Felix then motioned for the black car to pass.
As the vehicle passed, Felix fired a shot through the rear window of the black car with a .38 caliber revolver. Felix then drove alongside the black car and fired two additional shots at the passenger side. None of the occupants were injured in the incident.
The EPD says the city’s FLOCK camera system and other city surveillance cameras were instrumental in identifying the suspect and his vehicle. Felix is lodged in the Hardin County Detention Center and is scheduled for a video arraignment hearing in Hardin District Court Monday morning.
