Sara Nicole Morales, 35, died on November 20, 2021, in Orange City, Florida, after a road rage confrontation that escalated to gunfire. Morales, a library assistant at the Volusia County library, was driving home from work when she and a motorcyclist, identified as 40-year-old Andrew Derr, became involved in a dispute.

At her residence Morales, reported to be five months pregnant at the time, retrieved a handgun and confronted Derr and the other witnesses in her front yard. Derr, who had a concealed carry permit, drew his firearm and shot Morales multiple times. She was transported to a nearby hospital and pronounced dead shortly afterward; the autopsy did not confirm the reported pregnancy. The local prosecutor concluded Derr acted in self-defense, declined to file charges, and the shooting was classified as a justifiable homicide.

Are there witnesses who can clarify what started the confrontation or what happened between the initial strike and the shooting?
