RALEIGH, N.C. (WPTF) – A man facing charges in a Durham road rage shooting now faces immigration charges.
Ellis Boyle, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of North Carolina, announced that special Agents with Homeland Security Investigations arrested Josue Alejandro Quintanilla-Reyes, 34, on a Federal warrant in Raleigh on Monday (June 15).
HSI obtained the warrant pursuant to a federal criminal complaint signed by a U.S. Magistrate Judge which accuses Quintanilla-Reyes, a native and citizen of Honduras, of possessing a firearm while being illegally and unlawfully present in the United States. According to the complaint, Quintanilla-Reyes shot and killed another driver with that gun during a road rage shooting on Interstate 40 in Durham County in March 2025.
Quintanilla-Reyes faces a maximum penalty of 15 years in prison if convicted.
This announcement comes weeks before he is scheduled to go to trial in connection with the incident near Harrison Avenue where Baez Cardenas was killed.
