Charging documents say he was in the backseat of a vehicle on Oct. 19 when a “verbal altercation” with someone in another vehicle occurred as both vehicles were stopped at a light. Police say that as the driver of the other vehicle accelerated from the light, Lane fired several shots.

Police say the driver was struck in the arm and stopped at a restaurant for help. Bail for Lane was set at $100,000 cash-only.
