Harlon Harrison, 43, was booked into the McKinley County Adult Detention Center Saturday night after allegedly firing shots at a tractor-trailer on Interstate 40 near the Sky City Casino, the Gallup Independent reported.

According to police, the shots appeared to be in retaliation for the truck driver's alleged swerving along the roadway and not allowing Harrison to pass, the Independent said.

State Police Sgt. Andrew Tingwall told the Independent that the truck driver, 25-year-old Monhannad Idias, reported that shots were fired at his vehicle near mile marker 102, and that Idias trailed the car westbound on I-40 until mile marker 42, a few miles east of Gallup.

Police stopped Harrison's vehicle and saw him throw a firearm and a live .38-caliber special round from the window of his silver Chevrolet Suburban, but later recovered the weapon and five casings, police told the Independent.

Investigators also discovered a bullet hole near the fuel tank of the tractor-trailer, but no one was reported injured in the incident, the paper reported.

Police said Harrison initially denied firing the shots, but changed his story after his wife Donna Harrison, who was in the car, told investigators that her husband had fired the shots from the passenger-side window, the Independent said.

Harrison was charged with shooting from a motor vehicle.

Donna Harrison was not arrested in connection with the incident, the Independent said.
