Shot fired during road rage incident

The Windsor Police Service is investigating after a gunshot was fired during a road rage incident.

At approximately 11 p.m. on July 26, 2025, officers responded to a report of gunfire in the 1300 block of Riverside Drive East. They arrived on scene and located a vehicle with damage to its rear window consistent with a gunshot.
