BATON ROUGE - A member of the United States military was arrested Sunday after he confessed to shooting at a woman and her two children following a road rage incident on Siegen Lane.

Arrest documents obtained by the WBRZ Investigative Unit on Monday show Ryan Gooden, 26, was arrested over the weekend for his role in the Aug. 20 encounter.


quote:

Last month, the victim told Chief Investigator Chris Nakamoto that she was driving on Siegen with her two kids, ages 3 and 7, when she had a run-in with two men in a black sedan. She said the vehicle followed her to the Siegen Marketplace shopping center, and a man in a military uniform shot at her car from the driver's side of the sedan, striking her passenger side door.

quote:

East Baton Rouge sheriff's deputies later used surveillance video from the area to identify the vehicle and its owner, Gooden.

When questioned by investigators, Gooden admitted he exchanged words with another driver on Siegen Lane before grabbing a .40 Glock handgun and firing a shot at the vehicle. Gooden added that he disposed of the weapon after the shooting.

quote:

Gooden was booked on three counts of attempted first degree murder, aggravated criminal damage to property and obstruction of justice.

quote:

Arrest documents also note that Gooden is an active member of the United States Armed Forces, which was consistent with the victim's description of the shooter.

Likely will be discharged from the military, but a local judge will set this person free.

Don’t be surprised by the bottom of the barrel recruits they all have accepted the last few years.

Several here were speculating there was "more to this ladies story". There wasn't. This is just how crazy young black males in Baton Rouge are. They get frustrated, they kill somebody.

Deal with it.

I try to avoid any kind of road rage stuff because of this exact reason. Soooo many insane people out there these days that have no reservations with pulling the trigger on a complete stranger.

You are right. I need to do a better job at this. I just hate people holding up traffic because they are on their phones

Considering the hopeless traffic and retard drivers in BR, I’m surprised there aren’t more incidents like this. It’s an extraordinarily frustrating place to drive.
