A 29-year-old man has been arrested in relation with a drive-by shooting on State Route 900 that left a vehicle damaged but caused no injuries, according to the Washington State Patrol.

The shooting occurred at around 5 a.m. on the 22nd of July near May Valley Road. Investigators said the victim was driving eastbound when a light-colored vehicle began following closely after being unable to pass. Moments later, the victim heard a gunshot, and felt the shock of the shots surround the car as the rear window of his vehicle shattered.

Troopers found a bullet fragment lodged in the passenger-seat headrest and later recovered a shell casing near the scene. Detectives identified a potential suspect vehicle and, after further investigation and video evidence, established probable cause for an arrest.

On Aug. 7, WSP’s SWAT team took Anthony K. Robino Jr. into custody during a traffic stop as he left work. Investigators also recovered a 9mm handgun from his vehicle, which will be tested as the investigation continues.
