A man was injured during a road-rage shooting and crash along the 91 Freeway in Corona Sunday night, authorities said.

The incident was reported around 10:40 p.m. near the Main Street exit of the freeway, according to the California Highway Patrol.


A man driving a Toyota Camry allegedly fired shots at the victim who was driving a Dodge Ram.
