ODESSA, Fla. —
Authorities say a 34-year-old southwest Florida man shot a teenager in an apparent road rage incident and then killed himself.

Pasco Sheriff's deputies say the unidentified driver got angry when a 17-year-old driver did not pull up far enough at a stop sign. The man shot the teen, hitting him twice in the leg. The shooter then turned the gun on himself, killing himself inside his car.
Authorities do not believe the two knew each other before the shooting. The investigation continues. The teen was taken to the hospital. His condition is not known.


Pull up. @#$%^ pull up. Ok now I'm mad enough I'm going to shoot you and then kill myself. That will teach you to pull up next time.

What could possibly be going through this guy's head? Be nice don't say a bullet.

wow... no telling what else could have been going on in the guys life. But I can't think of anything that would warrant that.

The guy had some issues going on in his life to flip out over something like this.

I think it safe to go out on the limb of 'it had nothing to do with the stop sign.'

Let's hope that guy was NOT a permit holder. I'd hate for one clearly disturbed person to become more ammo for their 'permit holders are a dangerous lot' campaign!

Well then, there goes my smart-alec quip.

Okay, no "bullet" answer. How about this?

Q: What's going through his head now?

A: Air, where he ventilated his skull.

That's for sure!


It doesn't matter if he was, to the anti-gunners anyone that owns or posseses a firearm is a Demon with a tool of Death!

Bet the little turd never runs another stop sign!
