I don't think we talked about that one before, Duchess. But, there was a similar road rage incident in Hawaii not too long ago where the woman chased down the male driver to cuss-rant and threaten him with her kid in the car. She's lucky they didn't get physically hurt.
I'd briefly read about the one outta Las Vegas and thought a man killed the mother of four after he got into a road altercation with her and her daughter and then followed them home. That version of events was misleading, to say the least. The suspect(s) never followed the two home and the woman and her son went hunting for the man with a loaded gun (the son shot the suspect's car multiple times, according to the report I just read). I agree that they went looking for trouble and found it.
I'm sorry she's dead, but Jesus Christ she was foolish. Her son says he defends what he did because he was protecting his family. Her daughter says that her mom and her brother were protecting her and are her heroes. I say the woman put herself and her family in harm's way unnecessarily because she was a pissed off hothead.
Police claim that indications are that the man fired first (probably based on the son's version of events). If they catch the man, he'll probably be able to spin a good case for self defense, given the circumstances.
