Suspect held in shooting of Chinese student in US
Police have made an arrest in connection with the deadly Arizona road rage shooting of a student from China.
Tempe police Lieutenant Michael Pooley said that 32-year-old Holly Davis has been booked on three charges including first-degree murder.
According to police, Davis’s vehicle was involved in a collision at a busy intersection in the city of Tempe around 2:40pm on Saturday. Davis allegedly got out of her car and fired several shots into the other vehicle, hitting Jiang Yue, a 19-year-old second-year student at Arizona State University, several times.
Pooley said that Jiang lost control of her vehicle, crashing into another car carrying a family of five, including a pregnant woman and three children.
Jiang was taken to a hospital where she died.
The family did not suffer serious injuries while one of Jiang’s passengers sustained minor injuries. Davis fled the scene but was later located.
According to Xinhua news agency, citing reports in local media, Davis has been charged with premeditated first-degree murder, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and disorderly conduct with a deadly weapon.
The Chinese consulate in Los Angeles said that Jiang’s male passenger and a friend had got out of the car to check the damage just before Davis approached the vehicle.
