Drunken Norgard attacked Elledias and got shot.

We had a similar case here in Tucson many years ago. Unknown if he was drunk but the road rager definitely attacked the shooter who feared for his life.

Due to anti-gun judges and prosecutors the victim went to jail.

Tucson man gets 11 years for 2011 road-rage killing

Buelna testified he turned into the Jack in the Box to get away from the situation, but Casarez beat him into the parking lot.

He told jurors Casarez jumped out of his car and threatened to assault him and he shot Casarez in self-defense after firing a warning shot.

“He told jurors Casarez jumped out of his car and threatened to assault him and he shot Casarez in self-defense after firing a warning shot. “

That was his mistake, the warning shot and claiming self defense. He made it easy for the prosecution. He should have never claimed self defense in front of a jury in conjunction with firing a warning shot. It proved he was not in fear for his life when he fired.

If he hadn't fired the warning shot and just shot his attacker directly to stop the threat, plus keeping his mouth shut he most likely would be free.
