BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- Tyler James Blaylock, a 33-year-old Prineville resident and Door Dash driver, was arrested Friday, June 26, after allegedly firing multiple shots following a verbal argument.

Police say, "As the victim waited for the delivery in a vehicle outside the home, they became upset over the approaching delivery driver’s careless driving through the neighborhood."

A verbal argument ensued and Blaylock reportedly fired several shots as he drove away from the scene. Bullet casings consistent with initial reports were later found by police at the location.

A Deschutes County Sheriff's Office deputy located Blaylock's vehicle on Highway 97 near milepost 131 just before 4 a.m. The deputy, along with a Redmond police officer, stopped the vehicle on Airport Way in Redmond, where Blaylock was detained without incident.

Bend Police took Blaylock into custody on suspicion of unlawful use of a weapon, reckless endangering and menacing. He was held at Bend Police before being transfered to the Deschutes County Jail.
