I’m sure the 2 guys in the car that shot at these people are good and productive members of society. Sounds like a simple misunderstanding.

If this happened in AZ, these 2 clowns would have been shot dead.

Too bad that the woman didn’t have DASH CAMS … one pointing ahead and then two pointing sideways to catch the image of anyone driving alongside them. I hope someone saw this incident and got the plate number.
