Fort Worth Police say Arlington Police helped them track down a driver accused of seriously injuring another driver in a road rage shooting on Tuesday.
In a statement issued Thursday, Fort Worth Police said officers were called to a shooting along Interstate 30 and Cooks Lane at about 8:40 a.m.

Several drivers noticed the man and stopped to provide help before paramedics arrived and took the man to the hospital.
At last check, the man was listed in serious condition. Further details about his injuries have not been released. Investigators with the Fort Worth Police Department's Gun Violence Unit worked with the Arlington Police Department to look over surveillance footage from the area and identified a vehicle that was alleged to have been involved in the shooting.That vehicle led police to identify Medrano as a suspect and he was taken into custody the next day in North Fort Worth.
