An apparent road-rage incident in Polk County, Oregon, turned deadly last week when a driver fatally shot 45-year-old father Dennis Anderson.
around 9 p.m. on July 13 when a car began following the couple, "with the driver behaving erratically, engaging dangerously and attempting to force Dennis and Brandy's vehicle off the road," according to a GoFundMe for Anderson's funeral expenses titled "Devoted dad, Dennis Anderson, killed. Help!"
The father of three pulled over to let the driver pass, at which point the suspect got out of his car and fired multiple shots at the victim, according to Oregon State Police and the GoFundMe description. Anderson was pronounced dead at the scene. "Brandy was physically uninjured, likely due to her husband's body sheltering her from a spray of bullets," the GoFundMe states. It continues: "The aftermath of such a violent and unprovoked attack cannot be measured, yet Brandy and the children want Dennis to be remembered not for how he died but for how he lived.
Oregon State Police described the suspect as "a younger male, less than 25 years old, medium complexion, and small in stature with short dark hair."
