RALEIGH -- A shooting on Interstate 540 this week was a case of road rage, police said Thursday
It happened shortly before 10 p.m. Wednesday near the Glenwood Avenue exit.
Kyle Andrew Fiske, 23, of Raleigh and Danielle Marie Johnson, 20, of Cary, told investigators they were traveling west toward Durham in a black Acura.
Fiske said he noticed they were being tailed by "someone, a guy," in a silver Acura with tinted windows.
The couple told police that someone in the car fired a gunshot that shattered the driver's side of the window before exiting the vehicle through a passenger window, according to a copy of a 911 recording police made public Thursday afternoon.
Neither Fiske nor Johnson was wounded by the gunfire. However, Johnson was nicked by glass, according to the 911 recording.
The shooting terrified Johnson, who tried at first to talk to the 911 dispatcher before she gave ways to tears, sobs and unintelligible screams.
Fiske then talked with the dispatcher and informed her that they were pulling their car off an exit leading to Raleigh-Durham International Airport.
Fiske and Johnson stopped the black Acura near the airport terminals, where Johnson got out of the car and ran to the RDU Police Department.
The shooter continued driving westbound on I-540, where he was last seen, police said.
Investigators initially tried to determine if the shooting was related to similar fatal shootings on the Durham Freeway last week and in March, said Jim Sughrue, a Raleigh police spokesman. But they ruled that out by Thursday afternoon.
Police said the shooter in this incident was driving an early 2000s model silver Acura with tinted windows and chrome rims.
Police were unable to identify a suspect. They encourage witnesses or anyone with more information about the incident to call Raleigh Crime Stoppers at 919-834-4357.
