GLEN BURNIE, Md. — A motorcyclist shot and killed a "road rage" suspect in Glen Burnie on Thursday evening, police say.
The 22-year-old victim - who had a permit to carry a gun - shot Scott David Guhse, 51, of Glen Burnie, after Guhse harassed him and came at him with a hammer on Route 10 and Furnace Branch Road, said Anne Arundel County police.
The confrontation happened at about 8:20 p.m. Nov. 7.
The victim said Guhse was tailgating the victim's motorcycle and driving erratically, almost crashing into him.
The victim was forced to pull off the road, on East Furnace Branch Road near Margate Dr.
"This is where the motorcyclist got off his motorcycle, and the driver of the other vehicle got out of his vehicle and even according to witnesses, came out with a hammer and charged the motorcyclist," described Marc Limansky, a spokesperson for Anne Arundel County Police.
The 22-year-old took out a gun and shot Guhse, said police.
Police found Guhse dead at the scene from the shots. The victim remained at the scene and told police he had been assaulted.
Police are not releasing the name of the 22-year-old motorcyclist because he is not charged with a crime at this time.
The investigation continues, and anyone with information should contact 410-222-4731. Callers wishing to remain anonymous are encouraged to call the Anne Arundel County Police Tip Line at 410-222-4700 or contact Crime Stoppers at 866-7LOCKUP or online at metrocrimestoppers.org.
