Road rage victim eluded killer for up to 15 miles

[Hum]

A Maine resident apparently eluded an enraged motorist for up to 15 miles and called 911 multiple times before being run off the road and shot to death in Pennsylvania, police said Friday.

The victim, Timothy Davison, 28, was driving home about 2 a.m. Saturday on Interstate 81 in Antrim Township when he was shot multiple times and killed, Pennsylvania State Police Capt. Steven Junkin said at a news conference Friday. The shooting appears to be unprovoked.

Davison may have first encountered the shooter on Interstate 70 in Maryland and traveled between 13 and 15 miles, with the gunman in pursuit, before being forced off the road just beyond the Pennsylvania state line. Junkin said Davison called 911 from Maryland and Pennsylvania, but he declined to provide details about those calls.

A task force made up of Maryland, Pennsylvania and West Virginia state police, as well as the FBI, is seeking help from the public and operators of body shops in finding a "dark colored" Ford Ranger XLT pickup with damage on the driver's side from ramming into Davison's car.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 800-472-8477.
