A driver who was too fast and too furious is set to spend years behind bars in Virginia after a road rage incident involving a father and son in Loudoun County last fall.
Ricardo Osiel Avilez Blanco , 28, was sentenced to serve eight years in the Virginia Department of Corrections with no time suspended for an attempted malicious wounding charge dating back to an episode that ended in the parking lot of Heritage High School in October 2023.
According to prosecutors, on Oct. 14, 2023, a man was driving with his son in Leesburg when Avilez Blanco began to tailgate and aggressively follow them in a white Camaro, doing several “burnouts” around the victim’s vehicle.
Avilez Blanco continued to aggressively follow the victim into the parking lot of Heritage High School where the other driver came to a stop in his vehicle, officials said. Avilez Blanco then drove behind the victim’s vehicle and pressed the Camaro’s front bumper against the rear bumper of the second vehicle and proceeded to do another “burnout.”
