YULEE, Fla. \u2013 A man from Yulee has been arrested for his role in a road rage incident that took place about two months ago, according to the Nassau County Sheriff\u2019s Office. <\/a><\/p>\n

Deputies say that Jesse Robin Compton, 33, faces charges for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and firing a gun into a vehicle, which occurred last November on Miner Road in Yulee.<\/p>\n

The agency said that its investigation revealed that the victim of Compton\u2019s assault was driving on the roadway when they stopped for a turtle that was crossing the street. <\/p>\n

The victim told police that Compton pulled up behind their vehicle and \u201cangrily\u201d passed. They continued to tell police that a few moments later, Compton slowed down and brake-checked them, which caused their vehicle to hit the tow hitch on Compton\u2019s vehicle. <\/p>\n

Witnesses told police that Compton then allegedly backed his vehicle into the victim\u2019s car, exited his SUV, and fired a gun toward the victim\u2019s car, hitting it once on the rear left side. <\/p>\n

In a video taken on the day of the incident by a witness, Compton can be heard saying his daughter was in his vehicle, which Nassau County detectives later confirmed, the sheriff\u2019s office said. <\/p>\n

Compton was booked into jail on a bond exceeding $20,000.<\/p>\n
