“[EMSA] transported the victim to the hospital where he died later in surgery at the hospital,” said Lt. Jeff Flaggert of the Oklahoma City Police, according to local NBC affiliate KFOR.

The victim has yet to be identified.

Flaggert said the shooting stemed from a road rage incident involving a pickup truck and a black hearse adorned with a Christmas wreath, which McConville was reportedly driving when he opened fire on the pickup truck driver.

“When officers arrived, they found a red pickup parked in the middle of the intersection with a male victim lying next to the pickup that had one single gunshot wound,” Flaggert said.
