2024 Orlando Road Rage Shooting, in which the 30-year-old stayed dead

Orlando, Fla. –

A man who is accused of having killed another man in a deadly street shooting is brought to court.

The jury was selected on Tuesday morning for Nicholas Carrasquillo, 27. The Orlando police said he killed the 30 -year -old David Slighh in January 2024 during ride in the main traffic.

The Carrasquillo defenders admit that he fired the shots, but the army's veteran did this in self -defense.

According to investigators, Slight cut Carrasquillo's car in traffic on the East Colonial Drive on Lake Baldwin Drive. They say Carrasquillo told them that he had fired a shot in the ground because he would not move his car, and then fired more shots on the car that he still didn't move.

“Carrasquillo advised that his intention was to stow the driver because he did not move,” says the arrest report.

One of the shots hit and killed Slight.

Recently, Carrasquillo's lawyers have argued that the first shot was a “warning shot” and that he fired the following shots because he believed that Slight grabbed his own weapon in his car.

Carrasquillo is charged with a second degree murder and shot in a vehicle. If he is convicted, he will face an obligatory prison sentence of 25 years or to life in prison for murder for murder.
