A motorist shot and killed a good Samaritan who
stopped to help him after his car slid off an icy
North Carolina highway on Friday evening,
according to the Catawba County Sheriff's Office.
Around 5:20 p.m. Friday, a group of people
stopped to help a motorist who slid off the road
in Catawba. The group called the Sheriff's Office
for help, and when the driver of the car heard
them calling law enforcement, he began shooting,
authorities say.
The Samaritans ran, but one was shot. That's
when, according to the Sheriff's Office, the driver,
Marvin Lee (pictured above), approached and
continued firing on the downed victim. According
to the authorities Lee appeared to be under the
influence of drugs or alcohol.
The suspect returned to the vehicle and wouldn't
exit. A tactical team responded with an armored
vehicle. Lee was pepper-sprayed and taken into
custody.
The name of the victim has not yet been
released.
