"Davis felt the van was going too slow, so he tried to pass him. But Vilchez started to speed up. Both drivers then started racing down Egan Drive," Padilla said. "When they got to Autumnvale Drive, Davis overtook the van. The driver of the van then rear-ended the Honda."

That's when the bullets started flying.

Davis pulled out a gun, while his daughters were in the vehicle, and started firing rounds at the van. Vilchez pulled out his gun and fired back, deputies said. Davis stopped at a home on Garwood Drive and dropped off his daughters. He then continued to pursue Vilchez through the neighborhood.

Padilla said Davis spotted the van and started to shoot. The van then crashed into a passing vehicle.

Sheriff's reports show that deputies recovered a 45 calibre Taurus semi-automatic and a 38 calibre Keltec automatic. Davis and Vilchez had valid permits to carry a concealed weapon, Padilla said.

Let's just hope that Florida makes them both cell mates.

But of course, this will be played up by the anti permit to carry crowd. I wonder how many permit holders in Florida have used their carry weapon to justifiably defend their life? Could be hundreds, but you won't see much on that, just about these two stupid dingbats.

It appears that they both escalated the situation, so I think they will both get free board and room on the state.
