The incident occurred between Commonwealth and Pritchard Roads on I-295 on Saturday night.  Melissa Bujeda of the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office explained how very dangerous and serious a crime this is by stating, “It can cause them to go of the road. It can cause them to crash. It can crash through the window and hit them directly…They think it’s funny or they think they are just breaking a window. And they don’t realize how dangerous it is. And it is a felony.”

Neither driver lost control of their car.  There was $300 damage to each car caused by the rocks. Police are still investigating.
