Man Shoots Himself Accidentally During Road Rage Confrontation
The Orlando man told police that during the confrontation he accidentally shot himself in the leg.
…the man said he had been driving toward Orlando on Interstate-4 when another driver allegedly flashed a weapon after the two had some type of altercation.
To protect himself, the man brandished his own handgun, causing it to discharge into his leg.
The man was expected to recover from the wound after being treated at a local hospital. Because of some confusion about where the shooting occurred, the case was handed over to the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office and then to Orange County Sheriff’s Office.
