Andrew Santana of Miami, Florida was arrested Friday after he was accused of intentionally crashing into another vehicle during a bout of road rage, news sources report. The other vehicle reportedly contained a family of four; luckily, it does not appear as though anyone was seriously injured. Santana, 30, was booked into the Port St. Lucie County Jail on charges of leaving the scene of a traffic crash and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. It is unclear whether he qualified for bail bond. The press did not list a lawyer for Santana.
According to reports, Kelley and Karen Holloway and their children, ages 5 and 10, were traveling near along Port St. Lucie Boulevard Friday evening. They came to a stop at the red-light intersection of Veterans Memorial Parkway. Santana's vehicle pulled up behind the family's car and began to spin its tires, sources say,
When the light turned green, the family proceeded onward. Santana allegedly followed close behind, then pulled up next to them and began to shout expletives at them. Sources say Santana then slammed his GMC truck into the side of victims' vehicle. The collision reportedly smashed off the victims' side-view mirror.
Sources say the family pulled to the side of the road and parked; Santana parked as well and exited his vehicle. Reports say Santana shouted at the victims, telling them to exit their vehicle as well. Kelly Holloway, who reports say uses crutches to walk, got out of the vehicle and confronted Santana. At that point, Santana climbed back into his vehicle and left the scene, reports say.
Worried about their children, the Holloways called police and reported the incident. Detectives tracked down and arrested Santana later that evening. It is unclear whether anyone was injured.

According to reports, the incident occurred around 1:00 Monday morning at the victim's home. Rodriguez allegedly disguised himself with a bandana and climbed through the victim's bedroom window. Sources say he then lifted a blanket off the victim and touched her leg. "I woke up, and I felt something. I felt him looking at me. I woke up, and he was right there," the victim said.
