JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A father and son have been charged after a road rage shooting on Interstate 10 last September killed one person and wounded three others, the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said.
Officers responded Sept. 18, 2025, to reports of a shooting on Interstate 10 east near Interstate 95 north and found four people with gunshot wounds inside an SUV. Three survived; 26-year-old Toby Robinson died of his injuries. A 3-year-old in the vehicle was not hurt, police said.
The shooting appeared to be a road rage incident and that the shooter was in a black vehicle, JSO said. Detectives spent nine months investigating and used multiple investigative tools to identify the suspect, police said.
Investigators identified 43-year-old Leonard Bryant Sr. as the gunman. Officials said his son, 22-year-old Leonard Bryant Jr., was an accessory to the murder and tampered with evidence.
Bryant Jr. was arrested Dec. 17, 2025, police said. Bryant Sr. was taken into custody June 19 after a SWAT team located him. He was arrested on a charge of murder in Robinson’s death and four counts of attempted murder, the department said.
“We’ll continue to work to bring justice to everyone impacted in this reckless act,” JSO said.
No additional information about court dates or possible motives was released. JSO asked anyone with information about the case to call (904) 630-0500, by email at jsocrimetips@jaxsheriff.org, or via CrimeStoppers at 866-845-TIPS.
