Man killed in shooting on Pennsylvania Turnpike, gunman commits suicide, police say – NBC10 Philadelphia

Pennsylvania State Police officials said a motorist who was shot in the head during a driving aggression incident along the Pa. Turnpike in Lancaster County last week died three days after the incident.

The suspected shooter was found dead in a semi-trailer in a Berks County parking lot a day after the incident, authorities said; he had inflicted the gunshot wound on himself.

According to police, the victim – a 40-year-old Royersford man whose identity police have not released – was shot in a road rage incident that occurred May 31 on the Pa. Turnpike in Brecknock Township, Lancaster County.

In that incident, which occurred between 12:45 and 1:15 p.m., officials said, the victim was traveling in a white pickup truck when he got into a tantrum with the driver of a white semi-trailer truck.

During the incident, the victim was shot in the head and, according to officials, succumbed to his injuries at a Reading hospital on Monday.

Investigators said they found a tractor-trailer believed to be the suspected shooter’s vehicle in the parking lot of a shopping center on Crossings Boulevard in Caernarvon Township, Berks County, the day after the shooting, on Saturday, June 1, 2024.

At the wheel of the truck, police said, they found the driver, a 59-year-old man from North Dinwiddie, Virginia, dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

After finding the man’s remains, officials say subsequent investigation led police to believe the man was the shooter in the fatal May 31, 2024, road rage incident on the Pa. Turnpike.

According to officials, the investigation into this incident is still ongoing.
