Police were searching today for a gunman following an alleged road rage shooting in Tampa, Fla., that left one man dead.
The victim, whom authorities have identified as 47-year-old Fred William Turner Jr. of Orlando, Fla., was driving on a Florida highway when he called 911 to tell dispatchers he was being followed by a man with a gun after leaving a nearby store, ABC Tampa affiliate WFTS-TV reported.
“We know that at one point in time, this person did pull up beside him and showed him a hand gun,” Hillsborough County Sheriff David Gee told “Good Morning America.”
“During the time he was on the call with the Highway Patrol, they actually heard the shooting. There were a series of shots,” he said.
Authorities responded to the scene to find Turner shot and killed in his car on the side of the roadway.

Secret FBI files published in a British newspaper allege how superstar singer Michael Jackson paid off parents and victims of his sexual abuse.
The thousands of pages of documents include private investigators’ reports, phone transcripts and hours of audio tapes that were created by a former investigator who once worked for jailed Hollywood sleuth Anthony Pellicano.
“They describe how the Thriller hit-maker was once caught by a member of his household staff groping a world-famous child star, watching porn films while molesting another boy and fondling the genitals of a third in his private cinema,” Britain’s PEOPLEreported late on Saturday.
“The mother of one of the youngsters was sitting two or three rows in front of them at the time – unaware of the vile abuse her son was suffering.”
The files, reportedly provided to the FBI as part of its probe into Pellicano, name 17 boys – including five child actors and two dancers – whom Jackson abused.
Other children the singer allegedly preyed on include a European boy and the sons of a screenwriter. Their names were not published in the report.
In a transcript of one tape from 1993, Jackson’s ex-butler Philip LeMarque and his wife Stella detailed how screen legend Marlon Brando complained that the King of Pop would “disappear with the children” at his Neverland Ranch in Santa Barbara, Calif.
Stella said: “He’d come to the ranch and always see Michael playing, disappear with the children. Michael would never spend time with the adults at the ranch.
“He [Brando] said, ‘What the hell is Michael doing with those kids!’’’ She said another famous guest, the lateElizabeth Taylor, “never” complained.
The couple said Jackson would watch porn films with young boys in his private bedroom behind a secret wall.
It’s been said that the biggest family fights occur during weddings and funerals.
But while the world prays for Nelson Mandela as he holds on to his life, his family is in court fighting…each other.
According to the Los Angeles Times, Mandela’s grandson, Mandela, was order to return the bodies of Nelson Mandela’s three dead children back to their original burial grounds.
In 2011, Mandela, the chief of Mvezo, dug up the bodies of the three children and moved them from Qunu to Mvezo where Nelson Mandela was born. While he may have been born there, Qunu is where Mandela was raised and where there is a family grave site. Mandela has always been very vocal about wanting to be buried near his children so the “hope” was that if his children’s bodies were buried in Mvezo, then so would Mandela and that would ultimately bring tourism dollars to the village.
