San Mateo police arrested a man Wednesday, Feb. 8, for allegedly shooting into the rear of a delivery van from a marijuana dispensary in Oakland as the driver left work in October 2022, according to police.
At about 2:14 Oct. 3, police were dispatched to the 700 block of Fathom Drive on the report of gunshots. Officers learned the minivan driver was followed by a Volkswagen while on the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge. The driver pulled off the highway in San Mateo and backed into a parking spot. The Volkwagen pulled slightly past the parked minivan and two men — one later identified as Leimarion Johnson, 19, of Richmond — who approached the passenger side while the driver tried to drive away. The other man broke the front window on the passenger side and leaned into the van.
While he was leaning in, Johnson allegedly fired two rounds at the rear of the minivan. The other man grabbed a bag in the front passenger side and then fell out of the van, which drove away, according to police.
Detectives met Johnson while he was leaving Contra Costa Jail on bail Feb. 8 after identifying him, according to police.
