PORTLAND -- A Vancouver man accused of shooting into the driver-side door of a car that cut him off near Westfield last week appeared in court Monday.
Christopher P. Partridge, 25, faces two charges of first degree assault in the shooting.
He was arrested Wednesday after police traced license plate numbers from the car, which belonged to Partridge’s girlfriend. A loaded handgun and several spent bullet casings were found inside.
