Road rage attacks, gunfire send 2 to hospital

ORANGE, Conn. (AP) Police say a road rage incident that involved a shooting and a slashing on Interstate 95 has sent two people to the hospital.

A passenger vehicle and tractor trailer were on I-95 northbound near exit 40 in Milford Thursday night when the incident began.

The passenger vehicle exited at exit 41, while the tractor-trailer pulled over. Police say the unidentified tractor-trailer operator left the truck and ran up to the driver's side of the passenger vehicle.

The tractor-trailer operator struck the unidentified passenger vehicle operator with an unknown object, causing a laceration to his face.

The passenger vehicle operator got out of his vehicle and shot the truck driver while chasing him.

Both were treated at Yale-New Haven hospital for non-life threatening injuries.

Police say charges will be determined as detectives investigate.
