SHENANDOAH COUNTY, Va. — A man wanted in connection with a road rage incident earlier this month is now in custody.
According to a media release from Virginia State Police (VSP) Public Relations Coordinator Matthew Demelin, the original incident occurred on June 18, 2025.
At approximately 4:45 p.m., troopers were notified about a road rage shooting that occurred on Interstate 81 southbound near the 264-mile marker.
Reportedly, a Ford F-150 with West Virginia plates fired one shot at a Jeep Wagoneer while both vehicles were on the interstate. There were no reported injuries.
On June 24, deputies with the Jefferson County (W.Va.) Sheriff’s Office arrested a Roger Tyler Chason of Summit Point, W.Va., after VSP obtained warrants for the road rage incident.
Chason, 35, faces charges of felony attempted malicious wounding, shooting from a vehicle, and shooting at an occupied vehicle. He also faces a misdemeanor brandishing charge. He is currently being held in West Virginia pending extradition to Virginia.
Anyone who has information about the interaction between the two vehicles is asked to contact Virginia State Police Division II Dispatch at 804-750-8778.
