FORT WORTH, Texas – A Texas woman was shot in her car early Monday, possibly for flashing her high beams at another driver.Her family says her car was captured on someone’s home camera at around 3 a.m. Monday morning, moments before a possible road rage incident turned into a shooting.She flashed her beams to the other vehicle to get them to dim their lights.Police say she then drove herself to a 7-Eleven store to ask for help.“There was no need for this to have happened,” he said.
“I mean, it’s pretty scary,” she said. “Her car was going this way toward the main street and then the other car was parked and circled back around and went that way.” The suspect who allegedly shot her in the face is still out there. Now, the victim’s family hopes this doesn’t happen to anyone else. “She takes care of a lot of people and she’s the main household person, it’s like now everyone’s having to readjust their lives,” the victim’s son said.Copyright 2022 WFAA via CNN Newsource.
