An apparent case of road rage resulted in the shooting death of a 29-year-old Indian-origin man in front of his spouse in the US state of Indiana. The victim was carrying a handgun when he confronted the other driver in a pickup truck, and the accused shooter, who was initially detained at the scene, was later released, suggesting they may have acted in "self-defence." The incident happened at an Indianapolis intersection last week on July 16, according to police and media reports.
Gavin Dasaur, the victim, was travelling home with his Mexican wife Viviana ZaMora, according to the police. According to local WTHR reports, the man, who was originally from Agra in Uttar Pradesh, married ZaMora on June 29, just over two weeks before he passed away. In the video, Dasaur is seen approaching the driver's side of the pickup truck while holding a gun in his right hand and punching the door with it.
Then, he raises his right hand to the truck's window and transfers the gun to his left hand. In response, the pickup's driver fires three times, causing Dasaur to fall to the ground right away. Throughout the brief seven-second encounter, the gunman never got out of his car.
Officer Amanda Hibschman of the Indianapolis Police Department (IMPD) reported that on July 16, shortly after 8 p.m., authorities were called to an intersection on the southeast side of the city in reference to a shooting victim.
Officers who arrived reported seeing a man with at least one gunshot wound lying on the gro.
