Road Rage Incident Leaves Female Teen Shot In Riverview

This is insane! Road rage is becoming a serious issue especially in the state of Florida. It seems there's a new incident or road rage video every week happening on the interstate. A female teen was left shot after an alleged road rage incident in Hillsborough County. Two people were driving on South Falkenburg in Riverview around 5 p.m. Tuesday when they got into an argument. One of the drivers pulled out a gun and shot at the other vehicle. Sadly, this scary incident seems to be happening more especially in Florida.

After getting into the altercation, one of the drivers of one of the cars then pulled out a gun and shot at the other vehicle. They ended up shooting the young female passenger. One of the bullets hit a 16-year-old female and she was taken to Tampa General Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. According to ABCActionNews, Sheriff Chad Chronister said, "There is absolutely no reason for an innocent 16-year-old to be in the hospital because of a road rage incident." Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office said they aren't going to stop looking for the suspects. They are going to continue to investigate what led up to the shooting.

According to the Federal Bureau Of Investigation, the definition of a mass shooting is an event in which one or more individuals are actively engaged in killing or attempting to kill people in a populated area. I live in St. Petersburg and there was 1 mass shooting that happened on March 31st.Thankfully nobody died but there were 4 people injured. With that being said, St. Pete is not one of the Florida cities that have the most mass shootings this year. You will find the cities below.

We are only in August and I was was shocked that there has already been 261 mass shootings in the United States. According to CBS news, 72 of those mass shootings happened in the month of June. Over the span of three days in June there were 14 mass shootings. Several incidents occurred including the one in Michigan where a man pulled up to a splash pad and opened fire. Thankfully nobody died but 9 were injured. There was also a drive by shooting in fort Lauderdale that left one person dead and four injured. I really wish we could solve this gun violence problem in America, but I don't think it will ever happen.
