OPINION:
It’s unanimous folks; we are filing this story under “Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes“.
In addition to causing his own untimely demise AND inducting himself into the “Idiot Driver” Hall of Fame, Mr. John Kuczwanski is also a recipient of the Dumb-Dumb of the Week Award for proving, once again, that Forrest Gump’s mama was right; Stupid IS As Stupid Does.
Kuczwanski was arrested for a separate road rage incident at the same intersection in 2014.
John Kuczwanski, the Legislative Affairs Director for the State Board of Administration, was killed in a shootout triggered by a road rage incident in north Tallahassee.
The Leon County Sheriff’s Office took one person into custody after the Jan. 6 incident, however that person has since been released and no charges have been filed, according to a LCSO news release.
The office issued an initial statement reporting a fatal shooting that occurred last Thursday, shortly after 5 p.m., near the intersection of Bannerman Road and Thomasville Road, following an altercation between two drivers.
Thursday’s release confirmed Kuczwanski was killed in the incident.
The investigation into what occurred is still ongoing.
There are conflicting reports about what happened, though it appears events escalated to fatal violence following a traffic incident.
Sources familiar with details of the investigation told Florida Politics that Kuczwanski caused the auto accident that began the chain of events, and that he began the shootout that led to his own death.
The sources said the incident began after Kuczwanski’s BMW drifted out of its lane while heading north on Thomasville Road. That’s when the BMW hit a white Prius.
Both cars pulled into a parking lot. The driver of the Prius confronted Kuczwanski about hitting him, the sources said. The Prius’ driver then returned to his car to wait for law enforcement’s arrival after confronting Kuczwanski.
That is when, according to Florida Politics’ sources, Kuczwanski rammed his BMW into the Prius on the driver’s door, and began pushing the car sideways in the parking lot.
Kuczwanski then shot a gun at the white Prius, according to the sources. The Prius driver drew a gun and fired back into the windshield of Kuczwanski’s BMW.
Kuczwanski was hit and killed, according to the sources.
However, Kuczwanski’s wife, Rebekah Kuczwanski, said in a Twitter thread that her husband was a victim while confirming he lost his life. She claimed that he was trapped and “assassinated” and was trying to escape the person shooting at him.
It must have come as quite a shock when the truth came out and she learned that her husband not only instigated the entire incident but was also the singular cause of his own death.
