A road-rage incident in Texas turned deadly when a motorcyclist
pulled a gun only to be shot by the other driver in what
authorities are treating as an act of self-defense, according to
reports.
The fatal chain of events unfolded last Friday on the I-35
highway in Fort Worth, when the biker, 19-year-old JaDerek Gray,
was weaving his way between rows of vehicles, an illegal
maneuver thats known as lane-splitting, Fox4 said.
At one point, an unidentified SUV driver began changing lanes,
forcing Gray to swerve to avoid a collision, CBS DFW said.
Gray passed several cars and parked his motorcycle, blocking the
northbound traffic then reportedly began walking back toward
the SUV while pointing a handgun at the driver.
The SUV driver told Gray to put down the gun because there were
kids in his car. But the biker kept coming, so the other man
drew his own handgun and opened fire, hitting Gray multiple
times, according to reports.
Witness Isel Valenzuela said the shooting took place shortly
after he saw a green motorcycle speed between his car and the
one next to him on June 25.
Maybe 10, 15 seconds later, I hear four gunshots, he told Fox
4.
I look over and I see him laying there. With blood all on his
chest and his stomach.
Cops said that the SUV driver was the first person to call 911
following the shooting and that he immediately cooperated with
investigators.

Valenzuela said he ran over and turned off Grays bike, then put
pressure on Grays wounds until paramedics arrived.
Gray who cops suspect fired his weapon without hitting anyone
was taken to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead.

No charges have been filed, according to reports.
