Florida police looking for a suspect that killed a man in a road rage incident

Tampa Florida. WFTS-TV which is an American Broadcasting Company (ABC) affiliate in Tampa reports the police in Florida are looking for a man who allegedly shot a driver in a Florida highway on Sunday who died as a result of being shot.

The shooting victim is Fred William Turner Junior, 47, of Orlando Florida. Turner was driving on a highway in the Tampa area when he called 911 to report another driver was following him after he left a store moments before.

Hillsborough County Sheriff David Gee told "Good Morning America" while the dispatcher was talking to Turner the dispatcher heard gunshots being fired during the emergency call. The gunman pulled up beside Turner's car, showed him his weapon and then shot him dead.

The police went to the crime scene and they found Turner dead inside his automobile on the side of the highway.

WFTS-TV reports what was the root cause of the shooting remains unclear.

The police are looking for a gray Ford Taurus with tinted windows.

The Department of Transportation reports incidents of road rage have increased 170 percent since 2007. Road rage deaths resulted in more than 1,000 deaths since 2007.

Drivers should learn to control their emotions when they behind the wheel and not perform acts that could end a life or injure someone over a petty incident like being cut off in traffic.
