Authorities in Texas have arrested and charged a 24-year-old man with murder for allegedly gunning down a mother of four while she was driving — causing her car to flip over into a ditch — during a road rage confrontation in San Antonio, cops say.

Julie Marie Butcher, 31, was driving on Interstate 35 on the night of Nov. 8 when she got into a heated dispute with another driver, Nicholas Hernandez, and was allegedly murdered by him, according to local ABC affiliate KSAT. Hernandez’s arrest affidavit outlines how he got into the confrontation with Butcher, though it’s unclear why, and proceeded to shoot her in the head before speeding off.

Butcher’s car was reportedly found in a ditch, where she was pronounced dead by police.
