Florida Driver, 67, Arrested After Road Rage Erupts Into Terrifying Gunpoint Threat — Cellphone Video Captures the Confrontation

A 67-year-old Florida man has been arrested after allegedly pointing a loaded handgun at another motorist during a road rage confrontation, with cellphone footage helping investigators identify him.

Jose Foradada was taken into custody following the incident in the Town ‘N’ Country area of Hillsborough County, near Tampa.

According to the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office, deputies responded on November 8, 2026, after receiving reports of an altercation between two drivers near the intersection of Town ‘N’ Country Boulevard and West Hillsborough Avenue.

The confrontation reportedly escalated when Foradada allegedly pulled out a firearm and pointed it at the other driver.

The victim provided deputies with cellphone video recorded during the encounter. Investigators said the footage showed Foradada yelling while pointing a gun directly toward the victim.

The recording became a key piece of evidence in the investigation.

Deputies track down suspect at his home

After reviewing the footage and identifying the alleged gunman, deputies located Foradada at his residence.

He was arrested and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, a felony under Florida law.

During the investigation, authorities also recovered a Taurus 9mm handgun from the property.

Officials did not report any physical injuries resulting from the confrontation. They also did not publicly explain what initially triggered the dispute between the two motorists.

Cellphone footage helps investigators

The case highlights how recordings made by motorists can provide investigators with important evidence when confrontations on the road turn violent.

Road rage incidents can escalate quickly, particularly when a firearm is introduced into an argument over driving behavior.

Authorities have not released further details about the victim or whether additional charges could follow.

Foradada’s arrest does not establish guilt, and the allegations will be addressed through the court process.

What began as an apparent disagreement between two drivers has now become a felony case, after video allegedly captured the moment one motorist pointed a handgun at another.
