Two “crazy” dads have been charged with attempted murder after allegedly opening fire and hitting each other’s daughters in a terrifying road-rage gun battle in Florida, authorities said.
Strangers William Hale, 35, and Frank Allison, 43, shot at each other’s vehicles with semi-automatic handguns during a high-speed “cat and mouse” chase late Saturday — and were finally busted when they got out and started brawling on the highway, according to cops.
During the gun battle, Hale’s 5-year-old daughter was hit in the leg and Allison’s 14-year-old daughter was shot in the back, leaving her with a collapsed lung, Nassau County Sheriff Bill Leeper said Monday.
“What’s scarier than one crazy driver with a gun? Two crazy drivers with a gun,” the shocked sheriff said.
“Thankfully, no one was killed in this incident, but it could have very easily turned out that way because two people were acting stupid and let their tempers get the best of them.

Notice that one of these guys looks much more intelligent than the other.
I try to encourage many people to get their license to carry.
With the added tip:
“If you have that piece of metal on your hip, lose the ego.”
They could have at least given each other black eyes.
Hold muh beer.
That seems about right
Dolts
These dummies just ended up brawling anyway - they should have done that first, like men, and saved their daughters some gunshot wounds.
The mugshots are exactly what I expected. Straight out of central casting.
Imagine what the baby mama’s look like with these two losers
if you carry a weapon then you must treat that right with extreme responsibility.....
it is the hope that a responsible gun owner will help prevent crime and not to get into penny anty road rage incidents with fellow idiots.
Didn’t these idiots know that the rules only allow one Florida Man at a time?
I’m not seeing it.
I’ll take “two people who shouldn’t have kids” for $200, Ken.
Article doesn’t state who started the pursuit. Allison fired 1st shot into Hale’s truck “in an attempt to break off engagement”. It’s implied that following too closely started the incident.
This article seems to cast aspersions on carrying firearms.
my takeaways:
1. all men are sinners
2. don’t follow too closely
3. try to find way to yeild to a tailgater or roadrager.
4. flight is 1st option
5. never ever try to use a warning shot.
6. never ever shoot from a moving vehicle
7. never confuse retalliation for defense.
spel yield correctly.
Good advice. Another piece of advice? Here, in Oklahoma, remember that everybody else also has a sidearm and any reckless action will be met decisively.
All that was missing was “creepy banjo music” in the background.
Granted, I don’t meet that many new people. And I don’t make such suggestions to people blindly. Usually after working with them for a while.
That’s what my life is these days:
Work, sleep, eat...
