A motorcyclist shot and killed a “road rage” suspect in Glen Burnie on Thursday evening, police say.
The 22-year-old victim – who had a permit to carry a gun – shot Scott David Guhse, 51, of Glen Burnie, after Guhse harassed him and came at him with a hammer on Route 10 and Furnace Branch Road, said Anne Arundel County police.
The confrontation happened at about 8:20 p.m. Nov. 7.
The victim said Guhse was tailgating the victim’s motorcycle and driving erratically, almost crashing into him.
The victim was forced to pull off the road, on East Furnace Branch Road near Margate Dr.
“This is where the motorcyclist got off his motorcycle, and the driver of the other vehicle got out of his vehicle and even according to witnesses, came out with a hammer and charged the motorcyclist,” described Marc Limansky, a spokesperson for Anne Arundel County Police.
The 22-year-old took out a gun and shot Guhse, said police.
Police found Guhse dead at the scene from the shots. The victim remained at the scene and told police he had been assaulted.
