In a troubling case of suspected road rage, a Texas man is facing murder charges after purportedly shooting a driver he believed was following too closely. The accused, 45-year-old Jason Bartik, is detained with a bond set at 0,000, accused of killing 34-year-old Robert Taylor. According to the Frisco Police Department’s press release, officers swiftly responded to reports of a shooting in the parking lot of Frisco High School, conveniently sited across from the police headquarters. Upon arrival, officers discovered Taylor suffering from multiple gunshot injuries. He was transported to the hospital but sadly succumbed to his wounds.

An arrest affidavit, acquired by NBC affiliate KXAS, indicates that Bartik himself dialed 911, claiming the incident arose from a road rage altercation. The affidavit states that Bartik reported the incident around 8:30 p.m. on a Thursday, noting that it concluded in the Frisco High School parking lot. When questioned, Bartik allegedly explained that Taylor had been tailgating him on a nearby highway, prompting Bartik to brake-check in response.

According to an arrest affidavit obtained by local NBC affiliate KXAS, Bartik was the one who made the 911 call, saying that the alleged incident happened due to road rage.

Police said in the arrest affidavit that Bartik called 911 at around 8:30 p.m. on Thursday saying that he had been involved in a road rage incident that ended in the parking lot of Frisco High School. When police spoke with Bartik, he reportedly told them that Taylor was tailgating him while the two men were driving on the highway nearby. In response, Bartik brake-checked him.

Bartik told police that he drove off the highway and into the parking lot of the school, and Taylor reportedly followed him. According to what Bartik told police, Taylor got out of his car and “approached [Bartik”s] driver side window yelling at him.” Taylor then reportedly “reached through the window and punched [Bartik] in the face.”

According to the affidavit, Bartik told police he then allegedly retrieved his gun and fired at least two shots at Taylor, who then fell to the ground, where he was found lying face down by first responders.

Lifesaving measures were attempted to save Taylor’s life, but he died at the hospital.

After detaining Bartik at the scene, officers arrested him and charged him with murder following an investigation into the alleged shooting. According to police, there were no students involved in the incident.

Bartik is being held at the Collin County Jail.
