HARRIS COUNTY, Texas — A man was airlifted by Life Flight following a possible road rage shooting in northwest Harris County, according to Sheriff Ed Gonzalez.
This happened at just before 5:30 a.m. at the intersection of West Road and Queenston.
HCSO Sgt. Jeff Thomas said when deputies responded to a call of a shooting and found that he been shot multiple times. He was alert and told deputies that he was on his way to work when the incident happened.
He told deputies he and another driver each cut each other off. When he stopped at the intersection, the other driver fired at least seven shots into the victim's car.
He was last reported in critical condition.
The suspect driver then sped off in a gold sedan, deputies said. Investigators are looking at surveillance videos.
Views from Air 11 show a white sedan with a bunch of bullet holes in the side of the car.
With an uptick in road rage shootings across Harris County, investigators had this message for drivers.
"If you're in a road rage incident, don't participate in it, get documentation of the other car, depart from the scene, go the other way and call police, don't take action into your own hand," Sgt. Thomas said.
