Woman, 37, Shot In Head, Killed In Texas Road Rage Incident

HURST, Texas – On Monday night in North Texas, a tragic incident occurred involving a woman who lost her life in a road rage altercation.

The incident unfolded when the suspect car narrowly avoided colliding with the minivan she was a passenger in. Her husband, who was driving, gave the other driver the middle finger and that’s when gunfire broke out and she was fatally struck in the head.

Authorities received a distress call at 9:18 p.m. and dispatched officers to the 1400 block of West Hurst Boulevard. Upon arrival, they discovered a 37-year-old woman with a gunshot wound to her head. The Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office later identified her as Paola Nunez Linares from Fort Worth.

Zane Jones, Nunez’s husband, was present at the scene and told police that the couple was driving a Kia minivan North on East Loop 820 when they became embroiled in a road rage incident with another vehicle. According to Jones, the driver of the other car fired multiple shots, one of which struck Nunez. The Hurst Fire Department medics transported her to John Peter Smith Hospital where she was pronounced dead shortly after 2 a.m. on Tuesday.

No arrests have been made in connection with this case. Authorities are actively seeking a small, older model car of dark color that matches the description provided by investigators.

In a public Facebook post, Jones detailed the incident, stating that the other driver endangered them by tailgating their minivan and nearly causing a collision. In response, Jones, who was driving the minivan, made the provocative gesture towards the other driver. Jones emphasized that his wife was a passenger in their van during the incident and “had nothing to do with anything.”

“She was an innocent victim,” Jones wrote. “She was a passenger in the car when I flipped off a driver who put us in danger. She always hated when I did that, and I did it anyways. Then the driver shot into our car and struck my beautiful wife, who had nothing to do with anything.” “I can’t put into words, everything that my wife meant to me,” Jones wrote. “She was my rock when times were hard. She was my teammate at work and at home. She was my partner in crime through the good and the bad.”
