Victim’s dashcam footage helps cops solve near-fatal expressway shooting

A 22-year-old man from Wonder Lake has been arrested in connection with a road rage shooting on the Kennedy Expressway last month. Prosecutors revealed that a victim’s dashcam played a crucial role in solving the case, acting as a “silent witness” to the near-fatal incident.

The Illinois State Police responded to the inbound lanes near East River Road on July 12, where they discovered a Subaru driver who had been shot in the head. Following the shooting, the victim’s car swerved into a median and was subsequently hit by a truck. Miraculously, the victim survived the ordeal.

The dashcam footage captured by the victim’s car reportedly showed a Honda, registered to Aldo Ruiz, fleeing the scene. Through the use of license plate readers and cell phone data analysis, investigators were able to track Ruiz’s movements and tie him to the location of the shooting. Additionally, shell casings found in Ruiz’s bedroom matched those recovered from the expressway, further incriminating him in the crime.

Upon learning that he was a suspect, Ruiz surrendered himself to authorities. A judge ordered him to be detained on a charge of attempted murder, citing his apparent inability to control his impulses during what was described as a “trivial” driving dispute.

The diligent investigative work that led to Ruiz’s arrest demonstrates the importance of utilizing all available resources in solving criminal cases. The victim’s dashcam proved to be an invaluable piece of evidence, providing crucial insight into the events that unfolded on the Kennedy Expressway that fateful day.

This story serves as a reminder of the power of technology in aiding law enforcement efforts and holding individuals accountable for their actions. It also highlights the resilience of the victim, who managed to survive a harrowing ordeal thanks to the quick response of emergency services.
