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.
