Man to be charged with attempted murder after firing at semi driver on I-57

Man to be charged with attempted murder after firing at semi driver on I-57 (yahoo.com)
Illinois State Police investigators said Smith was driving with a female passenger and two children when he passed a semi truck. He slowed down after passing, which led to the semi hitting his car’s bumper.

After that collision, Smith told investigators he became enraged and fired eight shots with a handgun he had in his car near milepost 223. The bullets hit the cab side of the truck near the driver.

Sounds like he brake checked a big truck and got pissed when he got hit.

 

He needs to be put on ice for 45 years.

 

Low intelligence lifeform

 

Moron is from East St.Louis. That tells you everything you need to know!

 

Worse than that, he just taught rage to his kids

 

State police were able to locate Smith and his car about 20 minutes after Smith fired at the truck near milepost 249, but he refused to stop. He engaged in a multi-county chase with State Police, weaving between cars, driving on the shoulder and speeding in a construction zone. At some points, Smith was going as fast as 124 mph before State Police deployed stop sticks in Iroquois County.

This is clearly an example of you cannot fix stupid…

 

And put their lives in danger in the process.
I’m surprised he wasn’t charged with child endangerment.

And driving skills !

 

And he couldn’t have picked a worse portion of I-57 to FAFO!
I-57 from Marion up to Kankakee is a 200+ mile speed and enforcement trap,especially near Ina and Effingham.

 

There should be an extra charge for slowing down in front of a truck after passing.
