Off-duty Con Ed worker killed in GWB apparent road rage shooting

A gunman was still wanted by police Wednesday morning, hours after killing another driver in what police suspect was a case of road rage on the George Washington Bridge. Law enforcement sources said a 46-year-old off-duty Con Edison worker was gunned down Tuesday night when the gunman fired a shot through a window of the man’s car, striking him in the shoulder. The shooting shut down the bridge around 7 p.m. According to sources, the victim was captured on video nearly crashing his blue Volkswagen Golf into another driver an entrance ramp to the GWB. Shortly after, the 46-year-old’s rear passenger window was shot out with what law enforcement sources believe was a lone gunshot. The bullet appeared to strike the driver’s seat headrest before entering the driver’s body, law enforcement sources told News 4. The victim’s car later struck a median, bringing it to a full stop. The suspect was seen driving on. Late Tuesday, investigators said the incident was potentially the result of a road rage dispute. The NYPD has not released any description of the suspected shooter. Authorities remained on scene through much of the night canvassing the area for ballistics and have been reviewing surveillance cameras for more information about the other car involved. All lanes of the bridge were reopened around 1 a.m. The identity of the victim has been withheld as police work to identify the man’s family.
