A Rhode Island man was arrested in Milford, Mass., on Tuesday, July 8, for his alleged involvement in a road rage incident that took place in Tucson in 2022.

According to TPD, Giovanni Cardona allegedly shot someone who was confronting him at his car window. Cardona then left the scene and couldn't be located, TPD said.

On Tuesday, the Milford Police Department received a bulletin from Medway Police detectives, alerting surrounding agencies of an interaction with Cardona, who was wanted by the Pima County Sheriff's Department. Medway is a town east of Milford.
