NASSAU COUNTY, Fla. — Florida Highway Patrol troopers said they are investigating a road rage shooting between two truck drivers on Interstate 95.
The shooting happened Tuesday around 4:55 p.m. near mile marker 380 on northbound I-95 in Nassau County.

Investigators said the road rage incident escalated into a shooting when the tractor-trailer driver pulled alongside the box truck and discharged a firearm.
The box truck driver managed to evade the gunfire by moving into the left lane and shoulder, according to a report.
