A 29-year-old man has been charged with first-degree murder for the fatal road-rage shooting of a Manheim woman while she and her husband were headed to the beach last week for vacation, authorities announced Thursday.

Dejywan R. Floyd was driving down Interstate 95 in Lumberton, North Carolina, around 11:40 a.m. March 25 when Ryan and Julie Eberly’s GMC Yukon came close to Floyd’s Chevrolet Malibu as they merged lanes, according to the Robeson County Sheriff’s Office.

Authorities said Floyd pulled alongside the Yukon’s passenger side and fired several shots through the window, then got off the highway at an upcoming exit.

Ryan Eberly pulled off the highway and waited for medical assistance, but 47-year-old Julie Eberly, who’d been sitting in the passenger seat, died.

Authorities said the couple’s six children weren’t along on the trip. Ryan Eberly said in a statement he and his wife were planning to celebrate their wedding anniversary with friends who got married at the same time.

Floyd was arrested at about 12:38 a.m. Thursday at the Parkview Apartments in Lumberton.

In addition to the murder charge, Floyd is charged with discharging a weapon into an occupied property. He is being held at the Robeson County Detention Center without bond and has a first-appearance hearing Thursday morning, authorities said.

The investigation is ongoing, and anyone with information is asked to contact the Robeson County Sheriff’s Office at 910-671-3170 or email sheriff@robesoncoso.org.

Any relation to George Floyd?

All I had to do was look at the name. Sad to see the Amish using automobiles for drive-by shootings.

Well, he DOES look like your typical Lumberton, NC, ‘citizen’.

No matter what happens to Dejywan (NC has the death penalty), he’ll still be voting the Demonicrat ticket for decades to come.

It is really sad. He had plans to marry the mother of his youngest child.

How did they catching him just one week later?
I’m glad he was caught for the sake of the public.
Was the incident filmed?
Or maybe there was a way to trace where any bullet or shell casings came from.

I didn’t even read the name before I wondered.

It’s a shame, but the stats don’t lie.

From another article. Not saying he had a reason to shoot at that car. I was wondering if the family car hit the other car or what happened.

Eberly's husband said he changed lanes and accidentally forced another driver off the road.
