An Albany Park man has been charged with attempted murder after allegedly shooting a FedEx delivery driver Tuesday afternoon in the North Center neighborhood.

Alexandru Mihai, 19, was identified as the driver of a stolen Porsche who pulled up to a FedEx truck and fired at the 25-year-old employee around 2 p.m. in the 4200 block of North Western Avenue, Chicago police said.

The driver was shot in the arm and taken to Swedish Covenant Hospital in good condition, officials said.

The Porsche sped off but crashed about a mile away at Giddings Plaza, police said. One suspect was arrested and another was being sought. Two guns were recovered, police said.

Mihai faces a count of attempted murder, a count of possession of a stolen vehicle and a felony drug possession charge. He was expected to appear in court later Thursday.
