In car with his grandmother.

Driver behind her became enraged because she "wasn't going fast enough" through a stop sign.

A week before Christmas.



Black Male Suspect Still At Large

ETA: Fox has altered this article after I posted the link.  The original DID say "black male driver."

Description of incident had me wondering if this is more about BLM "payback" against whites than it is about road rage.

Maybe some combination of both.

I'm picturing a woman in shock, and people can do strange things in that condition.

It's not unusual that her first terror-fueled instinct would be to GTF away from where the SHTF before she started thinking rationally.

She may not have known he was shot. My Grandson will turn 3 in 9 days. These stories break my heart. I would catch a murder case.

"Random black guy" commits ANOTHER violent crime?

I'm not ready to call BS, but I put a fresh battery in the bullhorn.

Article says the car was black, not the shooter.

Police said they were looking for an older black Chevrolet Impala. Police did not release a detailed description of the man who was driving it.

Details are still sketchy.  I'm reserving judgement until more is known.

That article was updated after I posted it, and it most certainly DID say a "black male driver" at the time I posted it.

Thanks for the info on the alteration to the article, I will update my OP.

It doesn't say the lady was white so why would you think this is "payback"?

Good point.

Probably my cultural bias showing.

I'm still annoyed that Fox fucked this article up though.

Something sounds odd about this story.
Road rage at a stop sign? Was she just sitting there like the stop sign was a stop light for 5 mins? Did grandmom flip him the bird?
Random drive by or mistaken identity makes more sense.

Maybe we'll find out in the coming days.

Its Little Rock.

I have no doubts that it happened just about like it is reported.  The place is vibrant.  Very vibrant.

I had it happen once.  Guy behind me absolutely losing his shit because I'm not moving.  With a pedestrian in a crosswalk in front of me, no less.

In fact, that's what this article reminded me of when I first read it.

Yes it did. I read this story early this morning and was amazed that they actually identified the driver as a "black male."

Guess it didn't fit the narrative, so they had to delete it

I read in a different article that the shooter honked at the female driver, who then honked back.

I'm betting her "honk back" was accompanied by the bird and a few choice words.

In the normal world that doesn't warrant a violent reaction.  In SW Little Rock this reaction is probably par for the course.

The honking makes sense to what may have set them off especially if followed by the bird and words. How old is grandmom? Has it been stated?
18:00+ is pretty dark to make a car ID and subject ID unless there are other witnesses or cameras

Well I'm in W. TN so we have plenty crazies too throw in Christmas time and they're out there.

NBC News just covered this incident on the nightly news, didn't say anything about the shooter, just that he was driving a black Impala.

Really gonna make it easy to find a person when nobody knows what to be looking for.

Victim was black. Poor kid.

Grandmother is black too. Says she "honked back" at the shooter. I'll bet there was more to that.

I always tell my wife to not react to road raging animals, because this kind of shit can happen. Just because you're in your car doesn't make you safe.
