Milwaukee 'stolen car vigilante' pleads guilty in shooting that injured 2

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- A man charged with shooting two teenagers during a road rage incident in 2021 pleaded guilty in court Monday, Sept. 18.

Jerod Brumfield, known as a stolen car bounty hunter in Milwaukee, pleaded guilty to first-degree reckless injury and second-degree recklessly endangering safety after shooting at a car that resulted in the injury of two people, ages 19 and 17 at the time.

During an appearance back in 2021, Attorney Grant Huebner with the State of Wisconsin went over how the road rage incident played out.

"This case results from the victims driving around throwing eggs at cars. A couple of them hit the defendant's car. He chases them down in the allegation, rams their car and fires shots into the rearview. One of those shots goes through the trunk through the rear seat and through the hand of one of the victims and into the spine of a 17-year-old girl who is now paralyzed," said Huebner.

A sentencing hearing is scheduled for Oct. 31.
