According to Boing Boing, a road rage incident escalated into a seventeen-mile chase involving a six-foot-eight-inch weapons salesman named Gary and a machine gun shooting. A jury ultimately ruled the shooting was self-defense. The case involves a Ruger A-C-five fifty-six—a semi-automatic rifle made famous by the television series The A-Team—and has become part of American legal folklore.
