In an incident of driving aggression, shots were fired at an SUV carrying three small children

Two Brevard County men have been arrested and charged with attempted murder after they shot in anger at an SUV carrying a couple and three young children in the Mims area on Saturday, according to a social media post from the Volusia Sheriff’s Office.

Officers responded to the shooting around 6:45 p.m. Saturday. Mims is located in Brevard County south of Volusia and just north of the Kennedy Space Center and Titusville.

The victims were driving east on State Road 46 when a black Dodge pickup truck began to rear-end them. The truck “eventually overtook them, forced them halfway off the road, cut them off and stopped in front of them,” according to the sheriff’s office.

Two men got out of the truck and fired several shots at the victims’ vehicle, a GMC Yukon, hitting it several times, according to a photo released by the sheriff’s office.
