A horrific road rage shooting in the tiny community of Beverly Hills, Florida, left a 44-year-old dad dead last Thursday, slain as his wife, daughter and grandson, all passengers in the landscaping truck he drove, watched him die.
WTSP reports that on the tape of the 911 call, police say Doyle can be heard saying he is going to shoot the victim in the head and Gonzalez’s wife repeatedly says “don’t shoot”. Gonzalez had called police and reported that Doyle was “driving like an idiot”.
A Florida grandfather was killed in front of his wife, daughter and grandson when a spell of road rage turned deadly, deputies said – and the terrifying shooting was caught on two harrowing 911 calls.
