Road rage murder-suicide - WTF??
« on: March 22, 2010, 04:42:31 AM »
How stupid can people be?  And these weren't even kids - they were 36 and 49 years old.  Dumbasses.

PLACERVILLE, Calif. -- Two people are dead after a road rage incident near Placerville. It happened at Broadway and Newtown Road near Highway 50 at about 2:45 p.m.  El Dorado County Sheriff's Sgt. Jim Byers said after several miles the vehicles came to a stop after a crash. Investigators said they believe the driver of a burgundy truck got out of his vehicle and shot the driver of the green SUV and then turned the gun on himself, shooting himself.

The driver of the truck, identified as 36-year-old Jensen Cornelius Kohutek, was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the SUV, a 49-year-old man, was transported to Marshall Hospital in Placerville with life-threatening injuries. He died a short time later.

Byers said it is very rare for a road rage incident to go this far. "[It's] very rare that we see it end at this level where people lose their lives, but that’s always the chance you take and it's just a very unfortunate incident," Byers said.

Investigators said a gun was recovered from the burgundy truck. A 72-year-old female passenger in the truck was interviewed by authorities.

Crazy

Wasting your life like that, for what?

Dude got so enraged that he killed the other driver, and when the rage passed, he started to realize what he'd done, couldn't face the consequences and killed himself.

Just because the other dude drove ahead of him?

Sacramento could be described as a 'redneck' area and as such, there are plenty of big trucks here.  Sure, many are driven by guys who have something to prove, but many are driven by genuine farmers.  Folks love to show off their big trucks.

The shooter in this case drove a bitch-sized truck.  He was already experiencing major feelings of truck envy, so when he got passed by a little SUV, he just couldn't take it anymore.

haha, "bitch sized truck..."


but Tre, describing Sacramento as a "redneck area" is a bit of a reach....maybe further up the valley, but not in Sac-Town......you need to come back to NC and I'll take you to some real redneck areas....course you will have to keep your distance from me so they don't think we are together......hahaha   ;D

LOL!

I'm actually out in Placer County myself (a mile from Muscle Mansion and you're in farm country), but even though the people here are just posers, many do have several of the items on the 'You Might Be Redneck If...' list checked off.

Growing up in Granville County, I was pretty much a redneck myself...pure genius, you might say. ;)
