Man sentenced to 60 years in prison for 2022 road rage shooting Andrew Rangel, 29, was shot on I-35 near Binz Engleman Road
SAN ANTONIO – A judge decided the fate of a man who shot and killed a 29-year-old man during a 2022 road rage incident.
Bexar County District Court Judge Ron Rangel sentenced Jeremiah Nevarez, 36, to 60 years in prison on Thursday.
Nevarez was arrested three months after the May 4, 2022, shooting. He pleaded guilty on Wednesday for the shooting death of Andrew Rangel, 29.
The shooting happened after Nevarez pulled up next to Rangel in the southbound lanes of Interstate 35 near Binz Engleman Road and shot him.
After he was shot, authorities said Rangel crashed into the median wall, veered off the highway and crashed into a tree.
“This case highlights the importance of community cooperation and technology in solving crimes,” Bexar County District Attorney Joe Gonzales said in a statement Friday. “We remain committed to holding violent offenders accountable and ensuring they face consequences for their actions.”
