His bond was set at $250,000 during a court hearing Friday.
Around 7:30 a.m. Thursday, Centerville emergency dispatchers received two calls regarding gunfire and road rage in the first block of Westpark Road.
“Someone tried to run me over and I fired shots at him,” Tesarz told dispatchers, according to 911 calls.
He said the other driver tried to pass him in a school zone.
“He put his truck in reverse and tried to hit me, and I fired two shots at him,” Tesarz said.
The other driver also called 911 to report someone shot at him.
“This guy was doing 10 miles an hour, so I went to go around him,” he said. “He wouldn’t let me pass and then he followed me to work. And then fired shots at me.”
The caller said the gunfire broke a window in his truck, but he declined to see a medic.
Tesarz fired three shots, according to Centerville police. Two rounds hit the other driver’s vehicle and the third hit a commercial building on Westpark Road.
No injuries were reported.
