A Buffalo man is facing charges for the shooting of a backseat passenger while he was driving on the inbound Kensington Expressway.
It happened in the early morning hours of February 1. The Erie County District Attorney's Office says Timothy Eaton, 30, of Buffalo is accused of shooting the unidentified victim multiple times.
The man managed to jump out of the vehicle and was picked up by a passing good samaritan who took him to ECMC. The victim spent several days in the hospital, but survived.
Eatmon was arraigned before Erie County Court Judge Susan Eagan on attempted murder, assault and weapons possession charges. He's being held without bail and is due back in court next month.
