Police are hunting for an enraged driver that gunned down another man near the Maryland-Pennsylvania border in a fit of road rage, according to reports.
Timothy Davidson, 28, was shot dead moments after calling to police to report a mad motorist shooting was at his car early Saturday morning, police said.

Timothy Davision of Poland, Maine, was traveling north on Interstate 81 in Pennsylvania when a gunman shot him dead and rammed his car off the road.
The gunman, who fled the scene, rammed Davidson’s Mitsubishi Montero off the road on Interstate 81 in what investigators are initially calling a random act, according to reports.
Davidson was returning to Maine after visiting relatives in Florida, his heartbroken father told The Lewiston-Auburn Sun Journal.

The driver fled the scene of Davidson’s killing. It’s unclear what sparked what investigators are calling a “random” act of road rage.
“It all seems a little surreal because it’s just incredible,” his father, Timothy Davison of Raymond, told the paper. “He had gone to visit his grandfather and sister in Florida for the holidays.”
Investigators are still trying to piece together what prompted the highway horror and believe the gunman was driving a smaller pickup truck, similar to a Ford Ranger.

The shot that felled Davidson came while his Mitsubishi Montero was near the highway’s median, according to reports. He was later driven off the road.
The vehicle is believed to have extensive side panel damage after the deadly dust-up, police said.
“We have not found anything yet that would lead us to believe the victim and the suspect knew each other,” Pennsylvania State Trooper Robert Hicks told the York Daily Record.

Investigators believe the vehicle was a smaller-sized pickup truck, similar to a Ford Ranger. The gunman is still at large.
Davidson was working at his father’s construction business, Engineered Construction Services, prior to his untimely death, his father said.
The boy commanded the company’s factory floor with his quick wits and mechanical foresight, the elder Davidson said.
“He was the smartest (one) I had on the crew,” he told The Portland Press Herald. “He could see the vision and he could build it.”
The FBI’s Harrisburg field office has joined in the manhunt, according to ABC27 MHTM.
