An armed Indianapolis man was shot dead after barging over to a Chevy pickup truck driver and screaming in a suspected road-rage incident.
WHAT HAPPENED?
In a newly released video, Gavin Dasaur, 29, is seen arguing and attempting to punch the unidentified driver while holding what seems to be a gun in his hand on July 16.
As the driver smacks Dasaur’s punch-throwing hand away, the enraged man can be seen shifting the weapon to his left hand while continuing to berate the driver.
The man behind the wheel points their own gun at Dasaur and fires about three times at the young man.
Deputies from the Indianapolis Police Department said they arrived at the scene to find Dasaur on the ground with gunshot wounds.
He was rushed to a hospital for treatment but died of his injuries.
COURT RULING
The driver was reportedly detained but later released after investigators found that he was allegedly acting in self-defense.
‘Upon further investigation and after consultation with Marion County Prosecutor’s Office, that individual was released,’ the police spokesperson told USA Today.
Dasaur, who had come to the US from India in 2016, had gotten married to Cinthya ZaMora on June 29.
