Passerby shoots motorist assaulting deputy after traffic stop

Written by Teunis Felter

A suspect is dead and a deputy is in the hospital after a shooting took place on I-75 near the Corkscrew Road exit, according to the Lee County Sheriff’s Office. The suspect took off in his vehicle, reaching speeds up to 100 miles per hour. Eventually, the driver got out of his car on an off-ramp and attacked the deputy. That’s when witnesses say a third person came over and shot the suspect, who later died.
