SAN MARCOS, Texas – A reserve sheriff's deputy is facing aggravated assault with a deadly weapon charges after police say he opened fire on a truck driver he thought had cut him off.
After nearly 15 years behind the wheel of an 18-wheeler, Frank Collins III thought he had seen it all. He was wrong.
"Never seen nothing like this," the 56-year-old said. "It's just too far-fetched."
But what the Fort Worth man experienced late Sunday night actually happened, according to San Marcos police.
Collins was driving along an Interstate 35 frontage road outside of Austin when he says he was suddenly cut off by a red pickup truck.

I like the police being para military. They need to be in the modern world.
The original Robocop is one of my favorite action movies of all time.
It’s just so good. It’s one of those perfect 80’s movies.
I went to watch the remake on Nextflix. I made it about 75% of the way through before i turned it off and fell asleep. never bothered to finish watching it.
It has no soul or purpose. CGI just makes for empty movies it seems.
That's what makes you a citizen and not a subject.
You just don't understand what a tough job it is.../s
I wonder how much his Brockway.
Our society does seem to be roaring these days. I am weary of it. Everyone is in each others’ faces. Maybe we are over populated?
Last summer there were two road rage incidents by my house within 3 miles of each other, on the same highway on the same day. The “offended” maniacs followed their “offenders” when they pulled into gas stations, jumped out of their trucks and threatened their victims with hand guns.......police made arrests in both cases.
I don’t know, I mean we have plenty of land space in terms of square footage available on this planet, but yeah people are just kind of off their rockers here lately.
It definitely does not appear that we can all just get along.
You may have exposed a potential road-rager...lol
